And now a finalist - congratulations again, Ann! This is a terrific image! #9628313

Ann Lyssenko level-classic August 25, 2011

Thanks Lindley,
I seem to be getting a lot of mileage out of this image. It was so nice of her to allow me the opportunity to photograph her. Hummers are so small in reality, I suppose this is surreal in a way. Ann #9628380
