This is a great hummingbird photo. They are so much fun to shoot and imo a nice challenge with their small size and really fast movement, and even more fun to shoot when they are not on a feeder. Great job on this, its one I'd be proud of for sure.

Here is another rooster. The lighting is a real challenge in these commercial poultry houses, since they mostly use High pressure sodium lamps at 2700K. I'd love some suggestions on how to shoot a better photo inside the houses. This was shot with my Nikon 24-85 F2.8-4 and it probably is on my D7000 more than any other lens I have.

What white balance setting are you using?

 

[Ski38off]

Normally I use Auto1 and I have tried using the florescent settings even using the HPS and the various color temps of the florescent, and some look better than others . Its really obvious in shots that show much more of the house than just the close up of on the rooster.
