Hummingbirds Photo Contest Winners
Thank you to all the photographers that shared their photos showing hummingbirds in the Hummingbirds Photo Contest with chances to win a Prize Of Your Choice and more!
A special thanks to our friend and professional photographer Dan Walters for his collaboration as a guest judge in this photo contest. "I have been photographing wildlife for about 15 years. When I capture an image, I try to make that image come alive by combining behavior, action, light and a pleasing background. I have been featured in Ranger Rick Jr., Colorado Outdoors, Colorado Life, Brown Trout Publishing, Bugle Magazine and more."
"I love the unique composition. The position of the bird, the frozen wings and the flowers at the top of the image all add up to a great image." - Dan Walters
"I really like the position of the hummingbird in flight. What really stands out are the outstretched tail feathers and the iridescent colors in the feathers. The flowers on the left also add a nice splash of warm color and a place for the bird to land." - Dan Walters
"With all the great flight images, I really like the interaction between the parent and the chicks. You have clear eye contact with the parent and the chick. I like the fact you can see some of the food, and the tree also show a little of the environment." - Dan Walters
"Love the interaction between the two adult hummingbirds. As fast as these birds fly, getting them both in the frame and sharp is quite the accomplishment." - Dan Walters
