Canon 1 Ds Mark II 100-400 IS Lens Multiflash Set up 1/160 f 20 ISO 100 When photographing hummingbirds is important to give a sense of size, the introduction of an anchor point where the viewer finds something familiar, helps to determine the real size of the bird. In this case the Bromeliad and also the wasp on top made us to appreciate the detail in and otherwise small subject. Increasing the power of the 2 flashes dedicated to the background (1/4) versus the four dedicated to the bird (1/32) make us overexpose the background so the dark bird will have better chance to pop out on the image. I hope you are enjoying this series of hummingbird shots and also the tips that I am introducing, thanks for looking, all comments appreciated. Juan E. Bahamon
