    Default Costa Rica Hummer

    Here's another shot from Costa Rica. I like the 'pissed off look' of this one.



    Canon 30D, f/5.6, 1/4000, -2/3, flash, tripod

    doug -
    a some what different photo of a female scintillant HB

    I like the pose, look and colors of the HB , nice sharpness and exposure control, and the crop is technically correct (rule of 1/3's). I've never been a fan of black BG's , but given the lighting in this pic - it does add to the overall feel and mood

    one minor nit would be to clone out the 2nd catch light in the eye

    nicely done

    I like the pose in this one. The light looks a bit harsh and the BG is too dark for my taste. I might crop a bit off the top.

    Pretty nice and dramatic. I'd like to see the whole BG the color that is behind the bird rather than fading to black. Too bad about the dead spots on the leaf.

    I might also go a bit off the top, but I love the BG - high impact contrast really draws you to the image in my book - great pose too!
