Nicely done.

Your stop action of this little guy is fantastic...we all know how fast those wings flutter and you have stopped them in a perfect spot with exceptional detail.

Color, clarity and focus is very nice over all.

Maybe just a little tighter cropping on the right side to remove that 1/2 flower?

Great shot willie, (yes I know it's you and I haven't even looked up your profile). Excellent focus and I love that the bird is flying in amongst that colourful garden. Lovely light and an all over beautiful image.

What a fantastic shot! The color and clarity are wonderful! I like that the dof is small (just on the bird) but that the colors in the background are still vibrant!

I love your photo, the colors are nice, lighting and focus. I know birds are really hard to shoot in flight. You did a great job with this photo. Thank you for sharing

My friend, thanks for sharing your entry into the contest and good luck. I love the image of the hummingbird in mid air. The flowers provide a lot of colour interest but I also think they create texture and compositions that are too busy and take the focus off the bird. Please blur or crop more rigedly so that the focus is more centre on the bird. Cyn

what a great capture with this hummingbird..nice stop action. there's a tad bit of noise throughout - NIK dfine is a great denoise program. lovely colors - maybe a teeny bit oversaturated but otherwise a beautiful shot.

Fantastic capture. Lucky you that you just happened to get this. I love the detail and the color of your image. I enjoy the crop and your higher contrast appeals to me. Thanks for sharing.

What a sweet shot! I only wish that the darker item in the background wasn't there. It almost messes the bird up. It would have been perfect if a couple more flowers were there instead. The lighting was very nice. Very clear shot of the bird. Cool having the flowers very present but out of focus. The bird is definitely in hummingbird heaven.
