Aperture: F7.1
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 1/400
Galleries: Nature, Birds
Date Uploaded: Mar 30, 2009

 Shot on a dark rainy day in my backyard. Had to use ISO 1600 just to get a shutter of 1/400 so after the crop (heavy) and twice through Noise Ninja it is not the sharpest shot so not sure how well it will do.

I didn't vote in the challenge but thought this would do well, nice elemental shot of a hummingbird! Most don't know they spend over 90& perched, takes a lot of energy to flap those wings so fast!

Looks like he's saying, "Bring it on!" Tough capture, as these guys don't seem to stay put for long. Looks like a little too much noise reduction in the middles and too much sharpening on the edges.

Excessive noise reduction had taken away the details. Still an excellent capture.

Beautiful! Really nice capture of an amazing bird. Hummers are my favorite bird of all time. The colors are great along with your composition. 10
