It is a lovely looking photo. Very nice composition and lovely bg. Nice use of flash as well.

A lttle bit of a steep angle but still a fine shot. Very good flash use, nice and sharp, I love all the colors in this little bird. Perfect bg.

I love seeing all the various hummingbird shots on BPN since we don't have them even nearby where I live. Lovely details and pose - ditto the angle is a tad steep but not a deal-breaker for me.

Lovely bird, well composed, sharp and good colour details.

Thanks for the critics.

Beautiful bird, BKGR, and image. And a perfect position on that nice perch. Would prefer just a bit more room below and a slightly less steep angle to the bird.

thx for the critic Arthur,in the wild is often possible to find a better angle, sometimes not, in this picture i could have had a better angle, i need to be more attentive to every detail.

have a good weekend

YAW. After 28+ years of bird photography, I am well aware of that :). Sometimes just pulling the tripod legs in a bit can get you another 4-6 inches higher.
