How To Photograph Hummingbirds
I'm Kunito Imai, a nature photographer in Tokyo. I visited Trinidad and Tobago and Costa Rica to photograph hummingbirds. Here are some tips to capture them in-flight.
1. Shutter speed must be 1/1000 or higher to stabilize the bird on your image. 1/1600 or higher is ideal.
2. I recommend a 100-400mm zoom lens. 300mm would also work well. You can cope with an even wider range of situations with a teleconverter.
3. Hummingbirds are quite territorial and tend to return to the same spot again and again. So if you find a bird you're looking for, wait there for it to come back.
4. Don't use external lights. They ruin the birds' natural colors.

Thirty minutes later the captain announced, "One more engine has failed and the flight will take an additional two hours. But don't worry ... we can fly just fine on two engines."
An hour later the captain announced, "One more engine ... continue reading
