Hope you are not tired of seeing hummers. I do so enjoy trying to get these shots.

Here are a few fairly recent shots.

Your nits, crits and suggestions are most appreciated.

Thank you for looking and commenting.

Hope you enjoy,

Birdie

Diamonds in the rough I say! The first has such a great 3D feel to it and the last has the perfect tip of bill to tip of tail focus....pretty awesome set young lady!

I really like the look of the first, as Eric said it has that 3D affect. Very nice all around.

This is a very beautiful set. #3 is my favourite with the smooth background blur giving a great 3D like appearance.

#1 for me too Birdie. I like the shallow dof, focus on the flower and hummer head.

Lovely set Birdie!!
The first one is my most favorite because it is showing the whole hibiscus flower!
That flower is a treat to see with a hummer!
Have a wonderful day!

I'm not tired of seeing hummers Birdie, I'm tired of seeing other's hummers because I haven't had a chance with them this season!

The second has a certain charm that keeps pulling me in. IMHO the first is the strongest comp and the last demonstrates the proper use of flash. Nit picking aside, I'm really enjoying the set. Well done Birdie!

Nice work as always.
Questions, is there flash in these, specifically the first one?

IMO, the first and third are the stronger images of the four Birdie. The first is over the top. Great bg and especial the pose with the flower.

#3 is an almost, great detail on the hummer. I would like to see more "POP" on the young male. Some darker separation in the bg should make it sing or you could try the reverse darkening of the hummer.

Very nice set as usual...my favorite is that first one with the brilliant reds of that flower against the green background, almost has a 3d effect can almost anticipate the moment along with the hummer.

Birdie, could never get enough of the gems you post! My pick is the first one, I have never seen a hummer attracted to a hibiscus flower.
