Finally managed to get back to this project. Nowhere near as easy as it may sound. These are full uncropped images. Shot with 300mm Macro with 36mm extension tube.

    Oh yeah, Steve. Hummingbirds are very difficult to photograph. You are certainly close enough, but I would watch that light. It is very harsh.

    Shooting them is hard enough, but trying to get those macro shots are extra tough. Here is a crop.
