Hummingbirds

Using two flash units dialed down to 1/64^th power (to shorten the exposure time to around 1/50,000^th of a second) I was able to freeze the motion of these hummingbirds that I photographed on a recent trip to Utah.  The photos show a Rufous Hummingbird and a Black-chinned Hummingbird.  More details on how to photograph hummingbirds can be found in the bird photography book that I authored for National Geographic (National Geographic Photographing Birds).
