Allen's Humminbird

It's a lot of fun to try to photograph hummingbirds in flight while feeding. The bad news was that it was a cloudy day and there wasn't enough light to use a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the wing action. The good news was that there wasn't enough light to use a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the wing action- the result was some cool wing motion blur!

The "low" shutter speed makes it dynamic !

A really fine shot, wonderful detail in the eye where it matters. I agree with Dan, I like the wing blur, it looks natural.
