Re: Help! Humming Bird Hell.......

Mid telephoto, the sun shining on the bird, a garden full of red flowers and you're good to go.  Don't get a feeder in the pic, that's no good.

Rufous

You can also do a two or three flash setup with a one hole feeder and freeze the wings for a different look.  You're always balancing the background illumination/ISO with freezing the wings...

2 flash plus popup
