I would like to apologize to all of my friends for not commenting recently. I have been very busy with the affairs of my father's estate. His house is in escrow, taxes are due, and other complications. Oh, and I am tutoring my 15 year old in math, world history and spanish. So, time that I might spend on the computer is spent teaching my son the issues that led up to WWII. It is all good. I just don't have any time to spend on the computer. I do try to look at all of the images and I have seen some really good ones. Take care. Garrett

No worries, real life first. Hang in there.

Good good composition and colour.


Caveats?

Lil' bit of posterization creeping in.

Sometimes when they cut us up like a pie and we try to feed all, some get left out. Feed the important ones first like you are doing Garrett. Estates are very time consuming. I thought you might like this song as you teach your son about WWII.

Magnificent shot of this little hummer!! Family and children always come first and their education and that's the way it should be.

Do not worry there are other thing in life that are more important. Family is number one. Still you found your way to a beautiful picture. Thank you, Garrett.

Beautiful details and colors. Excellent composition as per usual! Seems the perch gives a nice scale to how small it is. Thank you for sharing it!
