You should hear it Moose...not too shabby....trust me.....it's not a tumor.....hasta la vista baby.....:)

Moose you have fine captures and great light, perhaps too good.

You need more separation of the hummer from the background. I did two redos. Just another way of looking at it.

Thanks, Ted. I have a habit of lightening the shadows in LR, then when if I run them through Perfect Effects 8, it lightens them a bit more. Here's a redo, LR only. I darkened the image just a bit, then brought the highlights up from where I normally have them, brought the shadows down, and decreased the luminance of greens and yellows. The sharpening is a little less harsh as well. Bringing the shadows down also decreased the noise in the BG.
