Nice.

I like this one, especially the relative restraint shown with the hummingbird in relation to the feeder.

You might want to clone out the yellow boundary artifact under the chin.

Daniel, Nice work w/ the filter. I think that George makes a great suggestion regarding the area under the chin. Maybe a tiny bit tight but nice details and capture. These guys are so fast!!

Nice composition, Daniel. I like how you tone mapped and processed the image. Nice details on hummer. Agree with Denise; a bit tight on the frame. Nicely done.

Thank you all!

Beautiful image, Daniel! I love the colors and the sharp details in the hummer. I think it would look even better with the feeder removed. Well done!
