The colors are fantastic, and I feel the pose you captured here is ideal. Also, I love the iridescence revealed on the hummer. Excellent.

Very nice image. Extra flash from the front would help E.J if that was even possible. Was this single flash or multiple, seems like single flash. Either way it is a superb image.

Multi flash, this species is very dark.

Gotta click on this to see the beautiful detail and gleam in the eye of this little bird. Lovely iridescence.
