Mark, these pictures are terrific! I've just returned from Ecuador and the Cloud Forest, where Hummingbirds are like mosquitoes here in Winnipeg. I spent several days taking Hummingbird pictures and not one comes up to the one percent mark compared to these! Perhaps only someone such as I who has taken a thousand such shots in recent weeks with lousy results can properly appreciate just how wonderful these all are. Congratulations! And, thank you. What an inspiration --- and good excuse when the weather here is 40 below again, to head back to Ecuador and try again.
