Hi John. I hate to say it, but you have taken an ugly picture! Great composition and it looks great, but your subject is an ugly hummer! HA Great shot John. Think what it would be like if they weren't small, scary! Ken

Thanks Ken,

Horrible isn't it.
Not a shot for the squeemish.

Nice picture, but what the hell is that thing (and how big is it anyway). Remind me not to visit your region next time I'm in the UK

beautifully done & I find the pattern on its body quite a lovely design
this one from your site also deserves posting, I think



lighting & exposure are perfect and very sharp
you've taken some gorgeous photos of this little beastie
