pretty cool hummer Krishna, I like the high key but there is too much empty space in the frame for me. the oof part of the perch becomes very distracting, I'd crop it tighter if you have pixels

Like the high key treatment here. I don't mind the bird small in the frame. The only thing that bothers me is the way the bird is facing. Wish it was looking into the frame.

Beautiful colours on the bird and you captured them well. I agree about cropping tighter.

I'm OK with the size of the subject in the frame, especially that the curved perch nicely flows into the space at right. I only wish it was looking in that direction. Another option would be to crop some off the bottom.
