Set a perch above a feeder it took only a couple days for the hummingbirds to start using it. Camera on sticks triggered with a remote. Image adjustments in Lightroom, small crop for composition.
Nice one -- I like the relatively simple image design. The two toned BG works for me and the perch isn't overwhelming. Details look nice on the bird especially for 1/100. To me, the bird looks a little dark, but I really rarely see these hummingbirds so I'm not the best judge of that. I don't mind the spider webs on top of the perch but I might consider cloning out the one under the perch on the bottom left corner. TFS
Excellent capture and technique, John. Like that you left the spider webs on the lichen encrusted setup. Like your crop and that beautiful BG.
I might lighten the throat and the shaded area of tail a tad. Not sure if you used flash or a white card for fill, but I would remove the two bright specular highlights in center of eye.
Very simple and pretty photo. Love the perch and the spider web. Bird looks very good also. I also think the frame is too dark and with up the exposure.
