Nice frame.
I like the wing position and the flowers in RUC.
I am not a big fan of the BG. The top of the BG is very bright so i wish the hummer had been solidly in the brown of the BG.

I really like this. Pleasing comp, nice pose, great colors, and detail. I do wish the bird had been more against the darker BG. I love the clenched feet. TFS
A very good natural light hummingbird effort! Detail is excellent throughout the frame, and I appreciate the look at the tiny feet. Background is so-so, but it's not a multiflash and background set-up like so many of
the hummer flight shots we see.
