2 Species of Coronet

Velvet-purple Coronet (left) and Buff-tailed Coronet. Apologies for my lack of participation recently. We have just returned from leading two private tours to Ecuador and working on our property there. One of my goals on the tours was for me and my clients to capture the interactions of hummingbirds on multi-flash setups. This was one of the results of our efforts. I composed a little more loosely than usual in order to try and capture multiple birds without clipping wings, this is just about 50% of the original image.

7D 300F4 1/250 F20, iso 320, 6 Nikon SB-26 slave flashes (which are triggered automatically by any flash Nikon or not), artifical bg, flower with sugar water injected.
