Allens hummingbird

Awesome capture. Beautiful coloring and lines.

Beautiful capture of such a lovely hummingbird Monte. Exceptional color, lighting, attention to very fine detail in the plummage (the wings are just so delicate!). The lovely soft DOF is the perfect backdrop for this beautiful specimen.

Congrats Monte, you've done it again!

My warmest regards, Gail

Looks great Monte! sharp with great clarity. How many flashes did you use ?

Excellent!

A masterful capture of a difficult subject.

Sharply frozen, with a nice composition and background and natural lighting. What else could one ask for ? Congrats !

You have frozen a magic moment, very good the contrast  of the bird and  flower with the complementary colour of the blurred background.  It is a pity for me in our country dont' live those beautiful little birds, Do you find them free in nature?, ciao Giangiorgio.

Yes, california has lots of hummingbirds flying around feeding on flowers, as was this one.  'Free in nature' as you put it.

Nice sharp with the detail. Very good.  Best Regards,

Monte,

  Beautiful capture with amazing sharpness & colors.  Take care, Patsy

Hi Monte,

Nice results using the fabulous Nikkor 200-400 ED lens .

Technically, this lens is best shot at F/4 throughout its zoom range.

Best Regards,  Mike

Excellent Monte.
