Nicely captured. I might crop some off the right with the wings in the forward position like this.

Nice shot and that forward wing position make it for me, Ross!
May try boosting the contrast just a bit as it's flat ...

Excellent light and bg here. Wish the bird was looking more this way though.

Hi Ross,
This is great. A little off the right and a slight head turn as others have mentioned, and it would be killer.

Nice one Ross, but I'd like the hummer farther to the right, with more flower showing.
