Gorgeous capture!! Love the light, focal refinement and touch of tone. Nice tight framing of your subject up close as well as isolation created with the dark background.

Another fantastic photo of your birds. This has excellent detail and color. How did you get the black background? It really helps define the bird. Great photo! Thanks for posting it!

    Thank you so very much! It was a late afternoon on an overcast day shot with flash. After the download I saw the background was a deep dark green. I adjusted the contrast and the background turned black.

Great shot, Willie. The black background really lets all of the details show clearly. Excellent clarity. Nice framing with the way you cropped it.

Very nice composition and tight crop. The position of the bird just fills the photo. The dark background really helps show the details in the feathers and the bird in general. I have often tried and usually failed to capture a hummingbird in flight like this. Very nice!

Nice picture! I like how the flash froze the flight just leaving the tip of the wings a little blurry. Thanks for sharing!

Perfect Shot!!! I don't think I'd change a thing and don't know anything I could recommend to make it better! Nice work!
