    Default Mexican Sheartail feeding time

    After 3 months of work on tour without my camera I am back to Mexico taking photos in Yucatan. Here is one that isn't the best quality, still an amazing moment of natural history. I wish I had my tripod and a flash with me though:-) and a bit more opening between the branches of the bush.

    Greetings,

    That is a very special moment you got here!! Love the feeding pose, not often you see this type of action with hummingbirds. The techs look fine, no flashh needed here IMO. I agree with you about the FG stuff...I wouldn't mind it if it weren't for the tail being obstructed so much. You could clean up the smudge rising up at right edge though.

    Glad you can get some photography done after all that time away from it!!

    Geez what a shame such a great image but just not quite sharp as mentioned from camera shake I assume. Still an amazing shot and moment as well.
