Sometimes I get feedback that my frames are too simple. Indeed, always want to round out my skills and was glad to have this pretty little female Lesser Goldfinch pop by while shooting migrating hummers with Kurt Bowman south of Tucson, AZ.
Would have loved more of the feet but the splash of colors made me smile.

Never thought your frames were "too simple" Brian. This one is as lovely as all your others. Love the overall composition and the placement of the bird here, although I can see a version with the oof foliage on the left cropped out. One very minor nit pic: having the tail clear of the leaf would be the icing on the cake for me.
I love how this turned out Brian! Lovely colors with those flowers in the BG. I agree with Paul...your frames are never too simple for me. Hopefully you make it out next year and we can have a good year of hummers. Very nicely done!
Super sweet. The central placement works well too, as all the other elements are at just the right spot to pleasingly balance the comp. Fun colours throughout.

Hi Amigo .... great to see a " cluttered " image created by " Mr Clean Sump " .
I am honestly surprised that the " clean party " is not " complaining " about the busy image .... well a good thing though .
Personally I do like everything here ... lovely color palette , nice tonal range... detail and sharpness , very good .
Composition does work well .... so no nits from my side .
