Excellent image. Since we all know how fast hummingbirds are I can't believe you have captured his expression. A fabulous captured image. Thank you for sharing such a great photo. It is probably the only way I will ever see a hummingbirds face since they are so fast. LOL
Thank you thank you!!

Understand your view about it being a front view,but it is what it is and I think you have captured a really good pose of this hummingbird,it makes for a different view to what we normanally see on these birds...Brian

Grace,
A beautiful stop action picture of this tiny Hummingbird puffed up the sun highlighting it's breast & it's wings outspread as it prepares to take to the air. Reminds me of a Ballet dancer taking a bow after a performance. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
Susan

Lovely capture, Grace, showing this pretty puffed up little hummingbird with raised wings, looking like a dancer and looking inquisitively at you. Very good lighting and focus showing a nice crisp image. Lovely composition. Suzanne

Never mind convention, sometimes, as with your shot, it is good to step out of the box! Your lovely image benefits from being well composed, sharp with good exposure. Love those tiny wings! Nicely done!!

Love it! These little guys are difficult to capture, for me anyways :) This is a great shot...love the composition, the pose of the bird and the muted background!

The timing is excellent even if the perspective is not the most flattering for the bird. I like the fluffy look of her feathers and the natural colors.

This is an adorable pose for this hummingbird! I love the raised wings, the slight tilt of the head, and the fluffy feathers. Nice background too.
