Low light,motion and ISO are all elements of taking this Humming Bird photo.The humming bird entering this space was exciting and challenging. The lowest f stop on this lens is f 5.6. I could have gone higher on the ISO but I wanted to have a low ISO for a sharper photo . I shot with a 1-200 sec shutter hoping to get the body clear and showing motion through wing blur, This was taken at dusk so I opted to not expose the frame with exposure compensation or exposure the photo in post to have a dusk low light feel that is a cast of blue tint to the light. Lightroom was used to increase contrast and crop.The process of photography is invigorating!
