This picture was taken off my brother's deck. Taken with a Canon eos t3 using an ef 75-300mm zoom lens, 1/640 at f/8 with an iso of 1250. Please feel free to critique it for me.

Nice shot! These guys aren't always easy to catch..
Welcome to UHH, Kev! Very lovely light on your beautiful bird. I also like that you left space around it and didn't crop too closely.
Beautiful! Close inspection reveals a bit of movement. I would try a shutter speed boost above 1/1000 next opportunity. Not too many chances to catch these quick critters though. A keeper none-the-less!

Very nice.
I have caught a few and stopping the wings is difficult. Not enough time to set up the shot on my part.
Next time I will set my shutter speed faster. Thanks

Only criticism: the humming bird wasn't in MY back yard! I'm still waiting for my first opportunity to photograph a humming bird.
Well done, thanks for sharing.
You are welcome. It wasn't in my yard either, had to go to brother's house
