Hola Angelina,
Nice capture of the hummer signaling "Touchdown". Excellent POV, I like the way it is looking at you as if to say, "WOW!!, That lady only has one big 55mm eye!!!". Great composition against a nice BBG. Very well done.

Always hard to deside wich one to upload having so many beautiful Hummingbird images Angelina.
This is a lovely one though to start the new week with.
Wonderful pose of the bird with it's wings spread out sideways and the soft color tones in the background are very pleasing.
Excellent DOF, but pity that twig is behind the bird crossing the wing and body.
Nevertheless a very nice shot.
Thanks for sharing and the good note.
Kind regards,
Harry

Wow gal...You look like you have been invaded by this twitties that also bomb. Very beautiful capture. The branches are set off and compliment so well. A short break has brought out something good. Nice work.

Hi Angelina.
Beautiful colours throughout the image, great moment captured of take off. Slightly soft in the detail but stands out well from the background.
Wonderful

Hello Angelina,
WHat a wonderful and well-timed capture of this little hummer. It seems to be perched and hovering at the same time! Excellent focus showing fine details and it looks so good against the neutral background. Really beautiful composition too.
Many thanks, Ulla

Hello Angy,
Great to be able to take shots like this: hummingbirds are marvellous subjects. You captured this Black-throated very well with nice lighting, BG and detail.
Good note too: looks like the birds are on the move already, but I don't know the normal time of arrival of Rubythroats in Texas.
TFS and have a good week!

Hummingbirds rock! I love this action shot, just before she took off. The DOF is short and gives us a real treat in focusing us on her wings and forward-leaning posture. Great capture, Angy!

We have some like this one and some ruby-throats as well. We're too new to it to know what they're doing. :-) I like the detail on this shot. He'll soon be off like a shot. Well done.

TFS!

Hi Angy,

I love the pose!! You froze the wings beautifully. Pretty hummer with the white tips on his feathers. Good details and background.

I'll be away for two weeks but will be back to catch up.

Hi Angelina, a perfect shot and very well composed. What a moment to catch - a small hummingbird taking off. Excellent definition, focus and sharpness on the bird. Wonderful colours and perfect dof. Great composition.

Lovely image Angy.
It's like a Japanese painting with the twig,bird, and gold green BG. Great stop action with the wings and tail spread.
Nice composition and POV.
