Hi Keith!
You said, of my first "hummer" photo:
>The only thing in focus was the flower.....
Here I beg to differ... in the small size .jpg, it may appear that
way, but in the larger, full sized image, the eye of the hummer is
tack as a sharp. That's what got me excited about that shot in the
first place. Hummers move so fast that with a manual focus lens, it
is almost impossible to get them focused and fire before they move!
> And I've never seen a hummingbird with a blue beak...
Now that's a good point, which nobody caught .. or, at least, nobody
else mentioned!
I did the first one as a "quick and dirty", for I was quite taken
with it.... not yet having seen the others. So I hit "Auto Levels"
in PS7 (that's where the blue bill came from and I didn't notice it!)
and away I went!
I then spent a lot more time with the second shot, getting it right;
posting it some hours later.
The first one has now been removed from the net. I will rework it,
and if worthy, will repost it later today.
Good luck with the Pentax and Robot!
Cheers!
