Hummingbird Release

Jason, Wonderful use of hands. The back ground is mildly distracting but not enough to detract from the moment. All the best. Andy

NO FARE! I want to hold him too! very nice picture of the Bird and hands Jason. 7/6

Jason, this is a great shot because of the story the hands tell -- the adult hands guiding the young hands cradling the fragile bird. The marvelous use of the hands deserves a 7 for originality. The Supporting features of this image are the composition with the adult fingers leading the eye to the bird, excellent framing of the event, and natural hues. The soft lighting is good. The DOF is good although the focus is slightly soft on the bird and it would be better if you blurred the background further. Nevertheless, this shot is truly outstanding just as it is. Congratulations. --Joe

Your feedback is much appreciated:)

it's impossible, how did you catch it?

They were bird banding and caught it in a net. They let my daughter release it.

Excellent shot. What a great moment that had to be for your daughter! Thanks for sharing:~)

Hi Jason.

 

This is a great shot -- best enjoyed in large display. My only suggestion is to frame it in photoshop as you've done with a lot of your other shots and add a meaningful caption to it. That would truly finish the photo.

 

The hummingbirds here in Northern Ontario are leery of going to the feeder with someone on the deck.. I can't imagine holding one!

 

Once again, great shot!
