Gorgeous capture of the action Michael! #10324699Jeff E Jensen September 16, 2012
Both are excellent! Have a great time, Mike! #10324887Anthony L. Mancuso September 16, 2012
That hummingbird picture is just ridiculous Mike..I don't think I have ever seen one with the wings that crisp.I know you're not around right now but I think I would go tighter with the crop...I am really in awe of that shot.. #10324933Debbie E. Payne September 17, 2012
Michael --The hummingbird is just so perfect. My one claim to a good hummingbird shot is one of one standing still. He cut me a break but this one is MOVING and you still got perfection. Good things happen to those who are patient; (and talented, of course).Love the simplicity of the plane. #10326686
