Flash in daylight 


I saw recently some photos of Hummingbirds taken in the day using flash to freeze motion, – sooo – i thought i could do that !
i set up close to the bird feeders – about 8 – 10 feet away,  with an external flash and a wireless transmitter and put the focus on manual , then went back to the kitchen and made a cup of tea, its a tough life !!
i only had to wait a few minutes before the birds arrived, as they came in to land i took a few shots, 

these were taken at iso 2000 , it will need some experimenting to get better images , but i’m pleased with this first attempt , i didn’t think i would get anything at all !
