Hello Roberto,

Wonderful shot. Sharpness is perfect. Great pose of the bird. Good contrast against the uniform colour of the background.
Well done,
Mariki

great exposure! 1/1000 second and the wings are still blurred - that says a lot about the bird's metabolic rate.
You may consider adding notes about their need for sugar and heartrate etc.

Hi Roberto, you are great at photographing hummingbirds! I like the movement of the wings, it keeps the photo from being too rigid. The colours are very natural, and those little ones are not easy to grasp like you did. These hummingbirds are the only specy that comes in Quebec and most of the eastern part of north america I think. And see, you photographed this one in Argentina. Does it stay there throughout the year? Many thanks,

Hi Roberto, excellent sharp stopped action of this Hummingbird. The detail is incredible. Great eye, he almost looks like he has an expression, like he might want to say something to you. Depth of field is managed will with great muted background.

Thanks, John

Hi Roberto,

Exceptional image of this flying hummingbird.
The detail is incredible and the sharpness is superb!
The slightly blurred wings give a great sense of movement.
Brilliant DOF and BG.

awesome inflight-shot with terrific frozen action, a great pose and wonderful colors and details! :-)
perfect sharpness on the shimmering green body and at 1/1000s still a nice motion blur on the wings.
superb job & best wishes, thor.

Hi Roberto
I like your shot of the Green-backed firecrown. I have now had time to look through your galley, its very good.
This is a great shot , having recently been in central america I know how hard it is to take this type of shot. Thanks for sharing and hope to see you you here on TN for a while. Sorry my Spanish is bad.

cheers
Chris
