Mortimer Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 A short two frame burst at 1/4000 shutter speed, ISO 3200 and f/11 and the landing of this little female hummingbird shows more sense of motion.

John Rostron Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Is this actually a focus merge? It looks to me that one frame provides the main image; the other provides the ghost image. It is actually a very effective composite. John Alfred 1 Quote Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5 Designer 1.10.5 and Publisher 1.10.5 (mainly Photo), now ex-Adobe CC CPU: AMD A6-3670.

Mortimer Posted July 29, 2022 Author Share Posted July 29, 2022 Hey, John, you are absolutely correct. Both images were taken within milliseconds of each other and the ghost image was the first frame cut to 35% of it's full resolution, then focus merge was used to create this effect without having a ghost on the hummingbird feeder itself. Experimenting with the focus merge capability in AP has brought about some very interesting and delightful results. Unfortunately, being that I'm retired and have too much time on my hands my friends will be getting too many of my results. I am glad you liked the result and hopefully it made your day a little brighter to see this little wonder of nature.
