Out working on repairing a foot bridge over our seasonal creek. The flowers and foliage near the creek bed attract these little guys. I soon found that they are hard to shoot in their natural setting. C&C welcome.

    Nice shot Glynn! Just slightly overexposed. You may be able to adjust it a bit in photoshop!

    15524779-Ti.gif Perfect focus on the eye where it should be, but a bit overexposed.

    On the other hand, I'm jealous. Here in Utah the hummers are just starting to show up in my yard.

    Thanks for sharing!
