Another "hummer" from the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest...
I "hate" the branch behind, but at least we see how extrordinary he is, when displaying...
He is a tough one to get at eye level, and away from the shade... so after several hours of trying, I decided that this was as good as I could get on that day, without multiple flashes and laser beams (which I do not have anyway). It does it for me, I hope it does it for you too.
Best, ugolino

Hi Ugolino:  What an outrageous bird and a sweet shot. If you wanted to, it would be easy to get rid of the branch behind. In PS CC just use the "quick selection tool" to select the bird and then "select and mask" to fine tune the edges of your selection . The last step is to right click then choose "select inverse". At that point, anything you decide to do to the branch will not affect your bird. Let us see the finished product if you decide to follow this approach.   Best,  Ron
