This is another resident of the finca in Costa Rica. All C&Cs appreciated.

[Scott Frye]

Beautuful -- great backfround -- I might try to darken the perch a bit -- but very nice as presented

[Bryan Hix]

Beautiful colors and sharpness looks great. I agree with toning down the perch, maybe also the top of the bill or just increase contrast a bit.

[Jory Griesman]

Tack sharp, and well exposed. Like the background. Might darken the material on the perch. I would also take a bit off the bottom, but this is subjective.

[Marina Scarr]

Stunning bird and colors. I'd like to see a little more room on the left.

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

I agree with Marina about the room on left. Good exposure of this difficult to expose bird. Love the clean BG and the stylish perch. That finca must be some where high in Costa Rica.

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Gorgeous with wonderful color and lighting. another vote for more room on the left. Thanks for sharing Jim. I have really been enjoying your hummingbird posts. thanks for sharing.

[Luis Villablanca]

Beautiful bird and very good exposure. I also like the pose and the smooth background.
I agree with more room to the left.

[Danny Laredo]

Really nice Jim. Super detail pose perch and BG. Just a tad tight on the left IMO.
