- Hummers are always fun but this is out of focus, the light is wrong, and the scene doesn't match the title.
- I like the idea and it good the maker got in close to fill the frame. The image loooks a little soft on my screen but the exposure is on and the color is good. The out of focus background is almost great. There is the out of focus leaves that merge with the birds head. A different camera angle may have eleminated the merger. I don't think the title describes the image very well.
- Image is soft
- This is a rare catch of an unusual bird; having a dark background helps him stand out more, but all those intricate feathers & the branch he's on need to be more precisely detailed to make it a much better photo. In Photoshop you could put more of the dark green behind his head, instead of the light colored objects as they are now.
