While setting up this closeup shot, and little flying intruder photo bombed my shot, and I wasn't sorry about it! He was probably a foot away from me, and never even gave me a second thought. Obviously I was focused on the flower, but I'm not real unhappy about the intruder being a little soft. Pure serendipity!

The greatest instances of creativity and invention in history have generally occurred while trying to do something else! Nice capture...

Very good.
I have had two hummers use my head for a pylon in a game of "chase the birdie". So close I felt the air move on my ear.

thanks Robert, I am aware of that, but being very familiar with flickr where you can combine the reply to several in one post, it does not seem to be the case here, unless I'm missing something. And I'm "old school" when it comes to acknowledging people who had something nice to say with a thank you, sadly, you don't seem to see that as much nowadays....so thanks :)

Well I see that your flickr is no more. They have "joined" smugmug. I think that is polite lawyer speak for a take over.

well, I suppose school is still out as to what the ramifications of the acquisition is, or will be. Hopefully, no sweeping changes, so it's a wait and see....
