Nice composition. Glad you included some of the foliage in the image. Your flash setup gives a natural look to the image.

Thank you so much.  There were 4 flashes used: one on background, one next to camera location, two above and behind subject.

Thanks, Greg.  Ooops! I forgot to give you credit for all you taught me about hummingbird set ups and general rainforest photography on our Costa Rica trip.  I'll post some more images from that fantastic workshop.  I hope all is well with you.  Best, Gary

Really like the angle and line of the bird in relation to the flower. Great capture.
