This is another Costa Rica hummingbird. I don't know why I had the camera set on ISO 200. A higher ISO might have helped the freeze the wing but I don't mind the blur. All C&C welcome.

Wonderful timing and lovely detail and color as well as a beautiful clean BG. The lighting is awesome. Many thanks for sharing Jim/
How I wish you should have boosted ISO ( though I am big fan of ISO 200:)) to freeze the wings , lovely pose , killer BG and compo

I don't mind the wing blur, and I even like how the tail is stationary between the moving wings. I would like to see the plant/blooms just a little sharper. You did a great job considering this is hand held.
Wonderful capture...great BG & pose!
Great pose, lighting and BG Jim!
I'm surprised you didn't have even more blurring at this relatively slow S/S for hummers.
Well done

Beautiful capture. I also wish the wings were less blurred but the light, colours and detail on the head make a lovely shot. Just a slight levels and contrast adjustment - would love to hear your thoughts.

Wonderful pose and great timing and what a cute hummer! Love the wing position.

Sweet looking image, great timing and detail.
I prefer the re-post. I have to say I don't mind the wing blur at all. Head and tail are nicely sharp and the blurred wings give a good feeling of speed and motion. Nice BG as well, good detail and a beautiful bird. Nice work.
Really nicely done. Nice natural looking BG and a fine pose. Well done!
Ofer repost adds a bit, great image this, nice timing, details, pose and Bg...
