Charles: Where's the hummer

. I'm kind of surprised you didn't shoot this vertically and isolate the main stem and subject. I like it a lot but the right side doesn't seem to add much. >=))>

I don't remember if I have a vertical. I know I've cropped it that way. I think the right side adds something. But I see it as a procession moving from left to right. Maybe "The Royal Hummingbird Feeder" would be best.

Looks just like the hummingbird feeder in my backyard . . . red, and vacant. I kind of agree with Bill on isolating this as a vertical. The RHS has some appeal with the creamy greens, but even so I'd crop a bit off to eliminate that distant stem or branch at the very edge of the frame.
