Keith, you really have perfected your 4 flash set up, and nailed this one perfectly. The Color and detail in both the flower and the hummer are spot on, and the background is so smooth. Nicely done.

Another wonderful image with great elements, Keith. Thanks for sharing this. I am really enjoying seeing all these fine hummer images from all of you and learning about the techs.

Great color and detail on both bird and flower, Keith! The background color is perfect also. Very well executed and definitely a wall hanger!

You're killing it with the hummers Keith! Nice work and no nits from me.

I haven't seen the same numbers here so far, but we are still in the monsoon. It's been unusually overcast for the entire day most of the last month and we have been getting some real nasty storms this year. But the temps have been much cooler this year. Hope it clears up in a week or so, because I have a friend coming in town to go shoot hummers in early September.
