This photo was taken in my back yard. We have the same pair of Hummingbirds that return every year. We plant flower for them each year and I was lucky to get this shot.Time
This capture was around 4pm.Lighting
The sun was behind me for this shot which made it good.Equipment
The camera that I was using in this particular shot was a Nikon D7100. The lens was a 55-300. There was no flash for this.Inspiration
I am always look for a great capture. Hummingbirds are fun to shoot and is good for practice.Editing
Yes I do. I bring down the highlights a little and adjust the blacks to suit.In my camera bag
Just recently I purchased a Nikon D500 and a Nikon 200-500 lens. I still use the Nikon D7100 as a backup.Feedback
Keep your shutter speed up and practice,practice,practice.
