    Juan, Beautiful colors, Nice eye contact and great BG. The perch is a little big for his delicate little feet IMO, but I like the moss growing on it. I also wish to see a little more of his side. Congrats!

    Hola amigo

    i would also prefer a more side-on view to get the bill sharp. Great BG and the colors on the bird are incredible. Thanks for sharing.

    Juan, This truly is a magnificent hummingbird...very soft lighting, I like the comp, and the background, and would only wish for a slight head turn with a sharp beak.

    Cheers!

    Comp works well, and what amazing colours these guys have. I like the perch too. I would maybe sharpen him just a little more.

    Great pose and exposure well done. Like the comp to. Looks like you got a bit of a halo on the head.

    Stunning colours and I like the comp. A bit of a halo on my screen as well.
