| 3 | Hazel4 (4/27/2010 10:45:13 AM) I've tried to take pics of these little guys, very fast. Good shot! |
| 4 | TW_Bda (Tim White) (4/27/2010 10:48:55 AM) Beautiful light and detail about the head and motion blur of the wings and tail suggests their speed. Excellent!  =3 |
| 5 |  joe bellantoni  (4/27/2010 11:21:59 AM)excellent pose...would like for smoother bg...maybe some blur brush. I like the eye sharpe look of this. =2 |

| 7 | Michael Boyle (4/27/2010 1:04:11 PM) Beautifully captured ......... |
| 8 | LindaY (Linda Y) (4/27/2010 3:34:25 PM) This is really well done Steve. The upper chest and head look like they are perfectly still and wonderfully sharp while the wings and tail are fluttering away with great motion blur. Colors throughout are marvelous. =1 |
| 9 | Ad (4/27/2010 3:48:36 PM) Great capture! |
| 10 | Zenonas (4/27/2010 4:37:38 PM) Unique shot, Steve! Looks as orchestra conductor! |
| 11 | Les McLean (**** )) (4/27/2010 4:41:06 PM) Class act |
| 12 | Top 10 Recommendation Mark Polis (4/27/2010 4:43:53 PM)Ditto Linda's comment for me - I can't express it any better. Having done hummingbirds on a number of occasions, I can appreciate the effort you put in here. Well you've succeeded. I like the movement in your image, including that of the wings AND the lower body. You nailed the eye and your colors and bg are really attractive. Kudos. =3 |
| 13 | herman blockx (4/27/2010 5:15:04 PM) nice shot ! great sense of motion , |
| 14 | ckldybr (A perfect photo is just a click away) (4/27/2010 6:49:02 PM) This is simply stunning Steve. I've tried capturing the little buggers, and wind up with total blur. They're FAST. Take care. Barb. =2 |
| 15 | Martynas (www.martynas.org ) (4/27/2010 7:37:29 PM) Is ok, but I wouldn't say is amazing... I have seen at least several dozens of the hummingbird composed and shot exactly like this one. Many of them were better. Yes they are fast and you did quite good job capturing it. But that's all. =8 |
| 16 | luna (4/27/2010 8:09:07 PM) excellent shot Steve |
| 17 | MJFerron (4/27/2010 10:11:15 PM) Nice catch. |

| 19 | April (Cindy Metzger)  (4/30/2010 9:50:52 PM)Outstanding you even caught this and caught him so well indeed. |
| 20 | George Oze (5/9/2010 12:18:10 AM) Excellent with the body and the head tack sharp and the rest is motion blurred. =1 |
