Description
I love/cherish/adore hummingbirds. I have a habit of making up hummingbirds every once in a while, mostly to practice iridescence.None of them come even close to the beauty of the real birds.

I love this, it reminds me of what I had in mind when I was a hummingbird for Halloween way too many years ago.

Wow! This is really pretty, I like how you made the bird glow. It's almost as if its from a deep dark jungle or something like that.

This is absolutely stunning. I love it. Excellent work. I also have a soft spot for humming birds. I held one like this during my expedition to British Honduras, we were sampling them there
