Annas hummingbird

Very good.

 

Monte,

That's a truly beautiful shot. Perfect detail in the bird. Great lighting. Beautiful background. I'm amazed that you were able to stop the wing motion with 1/250. Very nice composition also. Best

thx 4 looking

Perfection!  Impressive stop action as well... Mike

Hi Monte Such excellent work,with natrual colours and no intrusuions.Regards Ron

Monte,

  Beautiful capture with wonderful colors & details.  Take care, Patsy

I like the frozen wings, very attractive flower, excellent exposure and details on the feathers.

Hi Monte! Beautiful, very beautiful! Regards

a very good image well composed, I like the contrast with the blur background and the sharpness of the plumage, ciao Giangiorgio

I love the detail and perfect bokeh here. I also live the fact that you caught the tip of the other wing and the lines that the body and plant together make are very pleasing. Well done! 1/250th though? Common?! Seriously? No, seriously...

The wings are frozen by the flash, not the 1/250 shutterspeed.

Beautiful shot, Monte!  The hummers must be nesting right now here as they are quite sparse.

This is visually stunning. Well done indeed!

A superb capture of this feeding hummingbird Monte! Good to see it's spring somewhere; it's snowing here right now!

All the best,
Neil

Very nice colors and lighting. 

I wondered what you did with that Christmas Tree ornament that we got for  you..... :-)

Yet another winner.

As Neil says, glad you have decent weather. Winter rains for me here.

Congrats with this one........ don't get these birds over here, so I've not had the opportunity to shoot one....... not easy I'm sure.

Best regards

as always your work is inspiring. compliments 

Really beautiful work with impressive lighting and details, Monte!

 

Amazing details, congratulations!

This is a master shot, colors and texture are superb.  I have been 3 times at the Buttlefy Garden in West Palm and did not get one single good shot of this babies.  Congratulations.   Warm regards from Miami.

Amazing picture. Great colors and sharpness. Excellent work.

best regards Per.
