Summer Hottie
Uploaded: July 10, 2010
Shot this female Black-chinned Hummingbird yesterday, it's hot here now in Central Texas. Lots of rain lately too, unusual for this time of year.
From my first series of hummer shots this Summer..
F/9, 1/2000th, ISO 800, Canon 1D M3, 300mm f/2.8 + 1.4 x ext, 580EX Speedlite, Manfrotto 055MF4 carbon fiber tripod.
Cropped about 20% from FF. Have a 2:3 that works as well, but chose the 4:5 ratio for this post.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
