Hummers can look fierce. This female had just chased off its rivals. I added a wispy gray sky with clouds that show motion to enhance the mood.
Composite created in Photoshop. NIKON D600, f-stop 8, exposure time 1/1000 sec., ISO 1000, exposure bias 3 step, focal length 400mm, and max aperture 5.
Great Photos!!! Like 3-d magnificent
Thanks. Which version do youj like?
Funny, I like the first picture better, but both are great. I think this is a perfect picture and quite beautiful
I prefer the first one too. The mood is more mystical and the colors more muted. Personal taste.
The hummingbird is delightful sitting on the branch. Good focus, good color. Maybe a bit more contrast between the bird and the background would be better.
I updated it based on your suggestion. Thanks Louise.
