Marilyn, this is one of my favorites...it has that 'special' winner appeal. The composition, colors, treatments, are all perfect. The hummingbird feeder shows the wee size of this cute beautiful birdie. 8o) #6003617

This is just beautiful, Marilyn! A wonderful capture and you've acheived a lovely artistic effect that looks almost like a delicate watercolor painting. #6264284

Such Beauty and COLOR! WOW! I find birds just about the hardest thing to shoot. No matter how hard I try and how quiet I am or how long I sit there waiting, I end up scaring them off or that just aren't in good focus. When I see a beautiful shot of a bird like this one I quietly bow my head to you! -Laura :) #7007259
