 Spotted a hummer in the flowers as I went to get into a customer's car. Beat feet back in the shop to get the cam, had time to set it up in manual and get one click before it vanished into thin air.

Focal length 300mm at near minimum focusing distance,
very minimal editing and cropped full height at 5x7 format.

Yay! - I finally snagged a hummer that wasn't sitting still.
Shame it was nearly high noon with harsh lighting.

Another day will come.
