Violet Sabrewing at Heliconia
The attempt was to try and duplicate the natural lighting one usually sees these spectacular birds in, when they are feeding in the rainforest. The Heliconia was chosen as it illustrates how the plant uses birds and insects to help in its pollination to propagate its species.

At first I thought the flower was to much and over powering the hummer but after my initial impression was gone it now seem just right. Well done the lighting is beautiful. initial

burst of colors here. Love the composition.
Very beautiful, the flower and the hummer are gorgeous. I just wish that the BG was a slightly different tone of green. I think it is the aqua that bothers me. Otherwise excellent.

This is so good it hurts.
The flower alone would be a nice photo.
I can see Jacks point, the BG does not set off the bird enough, but I would love to have this.
