Hummingbird whirling wings

those are lovely comments, David, that's so kind of you, thankyou very much. This photo is from last year, when my telephoto was certainly much to be desired, - I have since been fortunate to upgrade. Thankyou again dear David.

So many of Alandra's birds and animals as well as her flowers are absolutely exceptional. If as the scoring system requires we were to comment on them all it would be a fulltime pleasure. She is very fortunate to have so many wonderful subjects nearby and her sensitive and acute observation of them, and her composition and technique with what I understand is relatively modest equipment are excellent. Alandra deserves a special award. Please keep on giving us such pleasure.

thanks very much Austin, your kind comment is much appreciated : ) had a great time last summer taking hummer shots on our front patio, for some reason they seemed much more cooperative than previous summers. Hope they are the same this coming summer : )

Hummingbirds are soooo hard to catch on film - you have done a wonderful capture of stillness & motion!!!

Excellent photo, they move so quickly before you can snap a shot. Very enjoyable. Thanks. Their the most precious little birds.

Guest - Aug 13, 2005 02:21 PM EDT
thanks for the comments, Websphinx. this is the best luck I had with the hummers, this summer. Other years, they'd take off as soon as they saw camera : )

Guest - Aug 09, 2005 06:34 PM EDT
What a treasure! I've never even managed to find my camera before visiting hummingbirds are LONG GONE!

thankyou May and Vicki for the nice comments. am quite pleased at being able to capture so many hummer shots this summer : )

Alandra - this is really stunning. Hummers are probably the most difficult to photograph and this is excellent!

Guest - Jul 03, 2005 03:04 PM EDT
Great! Now I understand your interest in hummers. When I lived in Oregon, we had feeders all over the place. Not too many here - just ruby throats. I'll have to watch my crocosmias.

Guest - Jul 03, 2005 10:24 AM EDT
thanks very much, Jean, Alex and Susan in New Zealand. happy you like it. We've had more hummers here this year than usual, or so it seems.

Guest - Jun 28, 2005 09:54 AM EDT
WOW!! thats a great shot.

Guest - Jun 27, 2005 06:58 PM EDT
This is wonderful, am sending it to my friend here in N.Z. who loves hummingbirds and wanted a picture of them.

Guest - Jun 13, 2005 02:16 PM EDT
what a beautiful photo I would love to see a humming bird let alone get a great photograph of one. I love your photos.

Guest - Jun 03, 2005 12:42 PM EDT
thanks very much, Joan and Tam.

Guest - Jun 01, 2005 07:12 PM EDT
They are all good, but this one is great!! You should enter contests with some of your photos.

Guest - Jun 01, 2005 11:24 AM EDT

Nice shot! I like it. I would like to try that, but we need some sun, which we have seen very little of in this part of the country...You have some very nice pictures Alandra

Guest - May 30, 2005 09:09 PM EDT
Awesome!

Guest - May 30, 2005 06:51 AM EDT
This is a nice shot. Hummers are my favorite. I've been trying all spring long to get a shot of one on my feeders and can't.

Guest - May 30, 2005 04:03 AM EDT
Excellant Picture!!! Carol

Guest - May 29, 2005 10:36 PM EDT
Alandra you really got a good shot here. Like you froze the hummingbird in time. I love the fluttering of the wings. Everything.

Guest - May 29, 2005 10:18 PM EDT
Great capture on this one Alandra.

Guest - May 29, 2005 07:38 PM EDT
thanks, Deb, yep, am pretty happy with it. They are hard to "capture" as they move at lightning speed. gorgeous little birds, fascinating, such lovely iridescence

Guest - May 29, 2005 07:23 PM EDT
Wow, I bet you're really happy with this one :) It's a great shot
