I ran this through the topaz program, the unedited pic. was not as good as I hoped, so this is the final result of some experimenting.

I think this little sweetie is either a young one, or a female.

Thank you for commenting.

Hummer's can be difficult to capture with the camera & most of mine never turn out as I expect them too. It's sometimes easier if they just sit still for a couple of minutes, but they are tiny subjects.

This looks to be a female ... perhaps a Ruby Red or a very young one. I like the effect you used & the bokeh is perfect. Nicely presented too, Sandi.

She's a beauty , Sandi.
They are so hard to capture with their speedy entrances and exits . I have yet to get a decent shot of the ones here . Nice camera work .

It does have a painted look to it the bokeh is very nice and it turned out well given your circumstances.

I am so glad you have captured the little hummer. I have yet to even see one this year. It certainly helps to have a feeder.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.

Great shot of the little one Sandi! I do like what the topaz did to the background, but I'm not so sure about the feeder and birdie. I might just have to get used to the effect ;-). Super shot girl!!!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
