I love the simple lines, and the soft background colours, which make the subject stand out. Great shot!

Another GREAT hummingbird shot! I LOVE the simplicity of this one. The background is perfect, along with the lighting of the bird! I like the centered composition, too. 9

the composition seems a bit stagnant, it is barely off centered enough to make it a little awkward, maybe rotating it a bit to get the bird more diagonal would help
