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.

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.

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.
