Who you lookin' at?

by Arne Myrabo

Gallery: Macro & Close-upPosted June 2, 201252 views3 comments
Olympus e620, 50mm macro with 1.4 telextender, f5, 1/800 s, ISO 1600, tripod, shot through window pane.

I really wanted to get one with her tongue out. I have a little horizontal reflection near the bottom that I don't like. I'll try again this evening with the sashes out. Not bad for a first attempt.

♀ Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris)

Amazing that you got this kind of magnification of this hummingbird with a 50 mm macro and a 1.4 tele. Excellent detail given that this was shot through a glass window. Nice background as well.
