Rain Dance [Animals]
Uploaded: August 09, 2011 07:01:59
After a month-long spell of 100+ temperatures,
this female humminbird seems to "dance" in the rain on the now-cooled metal post outside my door.
Every part of her was being shaken, except for her head and beak.
Canon 100-400mm lens, ISO 560, f/5.6, exp 0.0, 1/750 sec.
PSE dry brush effect and adjustments.
