Your photograph has very good impact. Excellent cropping. The use of the branches as leading lines is excellent. Nice color and I love the contrast. Everything in the image brings one's eyes directly to the main subject. A really great photograph. Thank you for sharing it.
Take care,
Cheers.

Oh my goodness!! What a precious sight. How blessed you were to be able to see thier mama make the nest and then to see them be born. This is a once in a lifetime treat. Looking at it you wouldn't think it is only the size of a quarter. Thanks for sharing that. We know they are small but looking at it it looks bigger. Fabulous job!

Thank you so very much! The eggs were like chicken eggs except they were about 1/4" in diameter.

You did a wonderful job capturing these tiny baby birds. Did you have to climb a tree to reach them? The focus is excellent and the details of the birds and the nest are very good. Nice catch-light in the eye of the bird in front. Lighting is just right, too. Great job! Lynnmarie

Thank you so very much! I used a ladder. The nest is about eight foot off the ground!

Deserves a 6 although I have none left, sorry!! Outstanding image with such clarity and natural lighting! Know the size and they are just the sweetest birds around!! Framing is perfect to bring the eye to the hummer babies!!Excellent eye highlight!! Awesome shooting!! May I suggest removing the round light circle above the babies, otherwise perfect in every respect!!
