    Another RTHB with multi-flash technique using the 1D MKIV + 300mm f/2.8L lens. I cloned out some slight ghosting that was around the wings.

    Ok sticking with the theme going here...I tried my first hummer shots. They have a long way to come but considering I wasn't at my own house and only had one on camera flash I think its a good start

    It was with the 5dii but with my 100-400mm....the noise level at high iso is such an amazing improvement over my 50d

    I like the idea but think the effect needs to be more extreme...I looked at it before reading that you had edited it and I questioned what I was looking at. It wasn't obvious enough what you had done. Maybe it looks better at hi res though.

    Nice shots Steph, like the blurred background on the last, nice focus on the eyes.
    The middle shot has real personality. And the top one may have more impact as a vertical panoramic crop.
    Keep them coming.

    This immature male RTHB was perching on one of our deck chairs while we were eating lunch
