You gotta start somewhere Jack.
Moving them out from the structure on top of the feeder has got to help the
lighting situation.
A 'Better Beamer' is a relatively cheap fresnel lens that will help project
the light from your flash.

Subject: Hummer Freezing(?)
My wife made the decision (of course) to hang a couple Hummingbird
feeders.
I've been dinkin' around attempting to freeze them with an AF540-FGZ on
the K-3.
I've chosen to use "M" flash setting at 1/64 duration. Not doing it!!
Said setting does, however, fully light a scene 'prox 25' across the
family room..??
1/1=1/1200.
Tried PTTL at minus a couple stops duration. Background too dark and image
soft. I read it
can do 1/20000 in the right light. Probably shooting into a mirror
close-up.;)
Any one?
