Hi Jim, I like the pose and perch, and how the perch curves across the image. Lovely green iridescence, and I find the HB nice and sharp.
Jim, beautiful hummingbird. I love the colors and sharpness of the bird. I think the perch is what does it for me. I am assuming this is natural light, correct?
Hi Jim, these are stunning birds and nicely portrayed. Might be tempted to lose that flower bud just on the rh edge.
Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
As mentioned, outstanding colour, sharpness, perch and BG Jim. I would be tempted to shave a little off the bottom- about half way up to the first bud, then remove the bud that is peaking out from the margin. The white under the eye looks hot but it's such a small highlight area that it probable makes no difference to the look of the image.
Lovely shot. I really like the ha and pose. The perch is a perfect match.
For me, it seems a bit tight on the right and wonder if removing the bud and taking abit off the bottom would change my perception.

just love the sharpness and colours here...the BG makes it pop!
Jim
Very nicely done. Good job with the DOF, perch, HA and BG. The WB looks better with this image.
Only one small suggestion - you might consider cleaning up the eye
Stunning detail, perch, head angle, sharpness, and image design. You might consider a version with the GREENS (YELLOWS) toned down a bit. All in all, superb.
