This is the only hummer with red legs in Costa Rica. It´s a bit large (4´´) and very territorial.
I used my
Mark IV

Tripod and fill flash.
ISO 1000
SS1/80sec.
Small crop for compo.
Thanks for looking.

Cool looking Hummer! I love the Blue/Green color against the smooth background...the red feet really stand out on the perch. I would have liked to seen a little more detail in the moss/lichen.
A real nice image!
Hi JC, good angled pose, and I really like the detail on the chest. Lovely greens this fellow has, and interesting that this guy is the only species having red feet.
Excellent image of beautiful bird. Love the color pallet, nice pose, superfine details chest feathers and beautiful composition.

Lovely image Juan, beautiful bird nicely shown. My only wish when capturing this image would have been... please move just a little to my right so both feet show. Thank you for sharing.

Wonderful shot and composition. Well balanced color tones, great light and perch. It's sharp. I like eye contact. If mine I would try to darken the highlighted parts of perch. TFS.
Cheers,

Nice work, Juan Carlos. Lovely detail on the bird. Good comments above.
Thats a great shot and I like the hint of tones in the backdrop. Good stuff
