Congrats on the win. I didn't get a chance to vote (yet again) but this would've been one of my picks.

Excellent capture! The fact that you shot that at 1/1600 at f/5.6 proves that those little wings flap line crazy! Awesome job!!!

Gorgeous Jim!

Thanks. I had a lot of fun shooting these little fellows.
I staked out a spot in the garden where I had a decent background of flowers, and just stood there for over 2 hrs, shooting when one stopped at a flower.

It's wonderful!!! I'm surprised you are not getting more comments on this! The color and clarity is superb, IMO. Shu

Superb! I am so there...Traveller,

And I believe you made the correct choice. Moving hummers are a tough catch. Paul

OK. After comparing them side by side, and with a better sharpening exercise, I decided to interchange the hummingbirds.

I thought about it. I just need to put them side by side and see which bokeh I like better.

Personally I think this is the better of the two since it is showing action and this one should be in eligible. Paul
