[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
This photo was taken at the Papiliorama in Chietres/Kerzers. The butterfly was a bit easier. The hummingbird however kept flying all over the place whenever I tried to shoot. No time to adjust the flash. This explains why the chest is rather overexposed :-(
You probably know much more about hummingbirds than I do. All I know is that they come from America and can remain stationary in flight or fly backwards.

Belle et intéressante photo pour superbe Colibri. Jolies couleurs dans cette composition réussie à mon goût. Moi aussi j'ai du mal à photographier les oiseaux...
Well done.

Halo Toni!
Superb, colorful bird. Great pose and wonderful shot of its beak! Good job!

Toni, Very well composed shot. Great pose/POV, I like it. Nice iridescent color seen as well..Only nit is the bit of OE at the throat. From flash? Well done

Hello Toni! What I really like about this picture are the colors; the yellow dots are fantastic and the different shades of red are very nice. TFS!

Very well done and thanks for posting

Very good capture, it's hard getting all perfect with that kind of fast fellows. Well done. !

Excellent sharpness and detail in this image Antonio, which more than makes up for the OE areas. These guys are difficult to shoot at the best of times and you should be pleased with this fine posting. Well done and thank you.
