Nice hummer - upload worked fine - Where is this - If this is in US - I am suspecting somewhere in Southwest - It is a probably a female Anna's Hummingbird - Still have one or more at our feeders in West Texas (Davis Mountains)

Very good, AnnaMaria. I love the very natural appearance of the image provided by the flowers and depth to the background. In other words, the image does not appear set up like many we see.

Very nice presentation with what looks to me like good detail. I like the background a lot.
