The equipment I used was Nikon d500 + Laowa 100mm macro + 2 flashes (f 16 / ISO 200 / flashes 1/16)
I placed the camera very close to a hummingbird feeder and removed the other feeders, so with patience I photographed the hummingbirds when they approached to drink.

Over the years on FM, I think I have looked at several hundred hummingbird photos - at least. These are some of the most unique shots and really stand out from the crowd. Nice job.
Thanks for your comment, I used manual focus. My lens does not have autofocus but it has a 2x magnification, it was a bit difficult but it was worth it.
