Some recent Hummingbird shots...I tried to attach these a few days ago when I replied to Lauren's post
LOOK out from BEE-Hind

I am huge for editing or replacing backgrounds. However, I think this background is really good for this photo. Even has a little hummingbird shadow. I wouldn't change a thing about this photo. It's excellent!

I just love the two with the hornet in them. Awesome!
Cool! I like the background. Nice shots.
We are always more critical of ourselves than needs be. However you may want to start looking at photoshop. Learning to use it requires lots of practice, but results can be rewarding. Kelby Training is a good place to start.
These are true photographers dream shots. Congratulations and thank you for sharing. It takes lots of time and patience to capture such great pictures. Your "bokeh" is as natural as the the picture. You are a very good photographer and am sure your collection of pictures must be filled with wonderful works.
While I love photoshop to "fix" things, it can also ruin things or become an intrusion. There is a lot to be said for "a la natural". Somehow when we have the right subject at the right moment and we know when to push that magic button (that's when our creative brain kicks in), things work out the way your pictures did.
Agreed on that, I guess tat is why the rule of tum is don't work on originals. I have many times gone down the PS road with a photo and got lost inthe dark canyons of WAY TOOO MUCH. I delete and start over remembering my bumpy raod making sure notto go down that again. Here is a ditty that I nudged with PS. I love this, it bleeds affection and love. What I strive for when I shoot.
