    Most of you know how much I enjoy taking pictures of hummingibirds in flight using the multi flash technique, well I also like to shoot them when they are resting

    For this one

    1D Mark IV

    ISO1000
    Tripod

    Many thanks for looking.

    Juan:

    The iridescence is amazing, aided by the soft light. Excellent pose, love the tiny feet.'
    Sharp, well exposed. I like the detail on the perch, but might try a version trimming back the largest dangling bit a little.

    Cheers

    A dream in green. I am fine with the presentation but the dangling bit of vegetation is a minor distraction...notwithstanding, an excellent image!

    Beautiful image i too like the perched images, lovely details and colours, those tiny feet and claws are really cute. The perch and background really could not be better.

    Hi Juan , a very nice frame with great colors , pleasing BKG and a great subject. Very well done .
    I might think about changing slightly the WB , to a fraction more magenta, just my thought.
