Rufous Hummingbird in flight. Captured with a long telephoto lens and 5 flash heads to freeze the wing motion.

Love the pollen on the beak. Do you happen to have any more info on your set-up ? Maybe a shot of it ? How close are you to the birds vs how close is your flash gear ?

Its a great shot.

Wow. That is an incredible capture. Probably one of the best hummer shots I've ever seen. You should submit this to some publications if you haven't already. Simply amazing. Sharp, clear, and lit exceptionally well. Your set up sure paid off. Nice work. Did you submit this or something similar for the flight challenge?

Simply beautiful. Wonderful capture of him in flight...stunning! He looks as though he is just frozen in mid-air.
