Thank you!
Beautiful, the plant and the bird.
I think it would look a tad better a bit brighter, but that is quibbling,
Very nice.
Awesome freeze . Agree on it going a bit brighter .
Thank you very much! I will try it a little lighter!
Great arrangement, setup, and lighting. Is there nectar naturally in the plant?
I really don't know, but I really think so! I went to that lagoon two days in a row and always found the hummingbird in those flowers. It was the first time I find them there. I have to find out what that flower is. I only had a Better Beamer with the zoom range set at 35. I actually read about doing that in a wedding photography book, so I really don't know, if it's really effective. At least I think the BB doesn't give out so much light. The natural light was beautiful that day. Thank you, Chris!
Gloria, I really like this image. The shadow and light work really well together. There are a few hot spots on the flowers from the direct flash but that's a minor issue; I think you combined the flash and natural light very well. I love the complementary background too.

Hey Gloria,
I agree on a bit more light on the bird.....but the BG and colors are fantastic! A small tweak will really make this shine!
