I like it. There does seem to be some glare off the feathers thats obviously that flash (but its my taste, I only like glare thats not flash ).

I've never seen a hummingbird with yellow on it. Do you know what kind it is?

This shot would probably have fell right in line with the Nature & Wildlife forum.

Beautiful shot!! The yellow/gold color in the feathers is just amazing. Nice capture!

Was that an honest recommendation, or a dig?

I think its a broad-tailed hummingbird. Their feathers have that reflective quality unlike most normal birds. Even if the sunlight hits them just right sometimes you get that sort of sheen. It is increased a lot with the flash, but I like that it brings out the color.

Well thanks for the tip. I didn't realize there was a nature and wildlife forum. I don't tend to venture too far from this forum. I guess I should get out more

I figured I would give this a bump and then let it fall into the abyss.

Not before I get to say "awwww what a cute bird" and "nice shot".

Thanks. I wish there was something in the pic to represent scale, cause that thing was only like 3 inches tall. It actually landed pretty close to me when I was sitting in wait for some other birds near by.
