I think this picture is the result of both. Great focus and detail of a pretty bird.

Well done! I've never been that good or lucky with our hummers, they don't stay in one place very long.

👍👍👍! Single flash? I know nothing about flash photography. Seemed to work here considering the quality of the image at considering you got this at 1/250. I doubt you could have gotten such a sharp image at that speed in natural light. Good catch!

This image indicates you're both lucky and good, Joe.

On camera flash with an extender attached. The extender adds about 2 stops extending the distance or reducing the recycle time at closer distances. Its a good way to shoot when mother nature is not kind.
