Not a bad shot. Try getting his eye in focus better and watch the exposure. The lizard body is overexposed (blown out) Good luck

Two Hummingbirds

Thanks everyone for the nice comments on this photo. Yes, the shutter speed was 1/200 ( the max flash sync speed on the D60 camera) The technique I used to freeze the wings was to use 5 flash units (vivatar 285's). I used only 1/16 power on each head so as to have a very short duration (measured at 1/10000 sec). I used a apeture of about f16 to ensure that almost all the light came from the flash units. So the bottom line is the effective shutter speed was about 1/10,000 enough to freeze the wings of a hummingbird.
