Excellent image, tack sharp! Great detail on the feet.I have decided to stick with my long zoon for Hummers. I can't get close enough with the 135. Its great for my windows shoots but too short for longer distances.
The was captured at 253mm.

Haven't captured one in a while...it seems as if they don't come around as often.
The first is from early morning the second from noon. The temperature was brutal and both times I waited about an hour.

Care to share your settings? Great shots.
Thanks Richie. Don't mind at all. Keep in mind about the only setting that may be useful is the shutter speed. The other may vary considerable depending on many variables.
Look at the dimensions...I cropped deeply into the original image to exclude unwanted objects and fill the frame with the bird. Shooting in raw and post processing is no less important than getting it right in the camera, which should always be the starting point.
In the film era it was darkroom manipulation and now its photo editors. Ansel Adams would confirm this if he were alive today.
