Thank you very much, is very rewarding to receive recognition from someone with your talent.

Hummingbirds are really my passion, most of my works are hummingbirds need to be patient and wait for them to fly where you want them to be, no matter if they fly elsewhere, they have to go through the background you want.

The little birds are so busy it's hard to even get a decent shot, this one is excellent. Great job! I have to say I'm a tad jealous...

Stunning capture. Great detail, colors, background. Congratulations on your Feature! (I know so well, how difficult is to take a good capture of them. I spend many hours trying to learn their habits, and taking picture after picture just to find one almost perfect among many, many just so-so.)

You have a marvelous weakness and certainly a wonderful knowledge of how to capture them perfectly. Such a beautiful photo. Great clarity. The background colors and blur make it stand out beautifully. I expect to start seeing them show up here at any time. If I might ask, what kind is this one. We have ruby throat here with a rufus on rare occasions. Love your photo!

Beautiful shot. Be interested in your technique for hummers, going to be in a location to take some soon and I believe they're tricky little bleeders :-)
meshersmith
April 09, 2013
The only technique I use and gives results is patience, the setting of the camera is very important depending on the lens used. To freeze in the air a speed of not less than 1/1000 the number f / depend on your camera and lens brightness, do not try to follow them because they are very fast, choose a place where they have been and good luck with the photo I hope see them in VB
