Taken at Grandma's house. We just don't have anywhere near as many hummingbirds this year - not sure why. Still, I couldn't resist the opportunity to shoot some of them.
I tried to edit these more "naturally" than previous HB images. Hope you like it...

I really thought this would score higher for you Jimmy. Excellent capture, great lines and the waythe color washes out into light I think works really well. Excellent work my friend.
I find the blown out white really interesting and it adds to the photo. However, iof some of it was croped out from the top, the photo would be improved.
great capture !!! A little too blown out for my taste, but that could be on purpose.. I love the position of the bird though, so I'm going with a 7. nice one.
Beautiful shot of the bird. I'm not sure about the curves adjustment with the blown bg and the neg space at the top. I think it works OK. The bird is the important bit, and you sure nailed that!
