Thank you for your comments.

Interesting. The flash did not give you the most desirable lighting. The color is flat and there is a monster catch light in the hummer's eye.

Flash photography of hummingbirds usually takes a multi-flash set up. I'm forced to agree with Phil's comments.

Wish you had posted a larger image. Looks like you have caught the wing movement well. I like the setting but have to also agree regarding the use of flash. Thanks for sharing.
