White-Vented Plumeteer Female

Canopy Lodge - Panama

For hummingbirds in flight, I used a six flash set up and a flash on camera. An artificial background prevents the background from going black due to light falloff. Hummingbirds are great fun to watch, and cooperative subjects a long as a sugar water feeder is available! Male humimingbirds are usually more brightly colored than females. But to me, the females are also beautiful with their more subtle coloring.

Awesome picture. Amaze me the details a picture reveals on the short time (as long you have the correct light) the exposure is made. Congrats.
