Here's a multi-flash hummingbird shot from our Costa Rica trip.   This is a large hummingbird.

A refreshing change from the usual hovering beside a flower, Nate! Beautiful composition, gorgeous colour and detail.

Nate, I don't know much about hummingbird photography. Curious why the iso was 1000 while using a flash set-up? Thanks.
