Gary, glad to see a hummingbird as a finalist photo. I think the blue color in the background was a great accent to the other colors. Nice and sharp! Many other great hummer photos in your gallery as well. Keep up the fun work. #4184578

Gary G. Stewart April 20, 2007

Thanks for the comment Larry. The blue background was actually a big blue dumpster. Pleased you liked the gallery. #4190826
