I know this is not a great hummingbird photo, but I think hummingbirds are one of the coolest animals and anytime I can get a photo of one of them, I am going to do it. I wanted to show the colors and the nice bokeh.Enjoy.
Camera settings: Nikon D3, Nikon 300mm f/4, shot at ISO 200, f/5.6 and 1/125th.
Post Processing:
Lightroom— Set white and black point, added mid-tone contrast and clarity and increased saturation of green.
Nice shot Patrick!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition! Love all the greens!
We see so many shots of hummingbirds in flight that it is nice to see one resting every once in a while.
Cheers!

Very nice. Was this taken recently? I've been watching, but haven't seen any over at my house yet this year.
ReplyDeleteThey are defintely around. I've had a few around my house lately. Nice shot showing something a little different. They are usually constantly in motion.
ReplyDeleteYou can see how bight they are in this photo. I do like all the green and the softness of the background.
