Rufous Hummingbird ("Selasphorus hummers")

Hi Hector -

 

This is an awesome shot. Fantastic sharpness and thr colours are amazing. How did you manage to get the background so far out of focus shooting with 5.6 aperture? Or did you blur this in Photoshop? Well done - I love it.

Beautiful Hector!!! Great pose.

Hola Hector, Bonita, como nos tienes acostumbrados habitualmente. Composici�n, nitidez y color de cine. Un abrazo de tu amigo Robert.

En tu linea...muy buena.

Hola amigo Hector ...donde andas..Fantastica tu imagen con esa buena calidad que atesoras.Un abrazooooooooo

Nice composition and bokeh, but the contrast range is too extreme. The burnt out branch and dark wing detract from an otherwise nice shot.

blownout branch kills this. luvya!

I agree with Mark and Yani about the branch.

I like your DOF and overall colors of the composition. More detail in the branch would be nice, but is minor, imo, since the bird is so sharp and detailed.

Perfect image. Thanks. Regards!!

sharp !!

looks fake to me. I see a halo all around the branch.

Very Nice!

Great capture!

Great!

Excelente!!

Burnt highlights or not, this is a great shot of the bird - the exposure looks right for him. I wonder if two stops lower would have yielded the same in his feathers?

Instante maravilloso atrapado por tu camara. Una belleza de color.

Gracias por tus comentarios

Felicidades! Composicion, detalles e iluminacion excelentes. Como dice Julio... parece una porcelana china. Saludos!
