Oh!! What a magnificent capture, Lee!! Magnificent sharpness with wonderful details on the beautiful plumage of this little hummingbird, and very good bg against which the bird stands out perfectly.
Very good job!

Hi Wing.
Despite the complex light conditions, you have taken a very nice shot. Its composition is brilliant as well as the timing and sharpness of the bird image. I also like terrific bokeh. BG is blurred, illuminated and coloured superbly. Bravo and TFS.

Hello Wing

A well captured in flight shot of this hummer.
The shot is well composed with the hummer well placed in the frame.
The focus is excellent with lovely sharp detail.
The lighting and colours are very good.
Very good plumage detail.

Taken in California, it would be an Anna's Hummer. The date taken of November 26 cinches the ID as an Anna's. Ruby-throated's do not occur in California.

I personally like how the wing in the foreground is blurred with the motion of movement and how the bird itself is well-focused and sharp.

They are very hard to capture and you did it very well.

Thanks for sharing,

Feather

Hello Wing,
This is a beautiful in-flight capture and this s not something easy to do. I like this pose and beautiful colors. I am just wondering about where this little noise could come from as you used low ISO. Maybe it was a little too sharpened? This background suits your lovely model very well. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Wing
That's very nice picture. It has wonderful sharpness, but on the other hand we can see that the bird is flying.
Good composition and nice uniform background.
Thanks for sharing
