Another hummingbird from Costa Rica. All C&Cs appreciated.

This is killer. By far your best yet IMO. I love the BG, light, and especially the perch with the flowers.

Jim this is perfect in everyway!! Perch, BG, exposure and well like has been said a stunner!! Big congrats!

[Ed Cordes]

Stunner with outstanding colors. At 260 mm this guy must have been close? The BG is perfect and the perch just right. I like it in every way.

[Martin Wallis]

Perfect light, comp, HA, sharpness and contrasting colour of flower. I'm guessing this was shot at a set up?
Cheers

awesome image. Colors and sharpness are superb.

[Simon Bennett]

Wonderful image - pose, irridescence, image clarity - all outstanding.

[Stu Bowie]

Stunning light, which in turn has brought out the green iridescence nicely. Good looking perch, and overall, nice and sharp. Just wish he turned his head slightly more towards you.

Oh god, what a bird! The very definition of vividness! Just spectacular!
