I went back to Defries yesterday and took the big gun(Nikkor 80-400mm) believe me any lens larger than that would be too much for me. :) for some more attempts at Hummingbird captures. I do have a few of those to share, but this is my F.F. post.I braved very humid conditions but endured it for a couple of hours.
I appreciate your comments, thanks!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Sharp and clear details in this well timed taken photo. Beautiful!

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Beautiful use of bokeh and composition, Sandi. The major elements are in perfect focus, they're offset to one side, allowing the bokeh to be a third element, and, I don't know if it was your intent, but your lens position placed the lighter green background color behind the flower and monarch like halos, putting even more emphasis on them. A wowzer, for sure. I don't often place flower shots in my favorites but this one is an exception. It may be Friday but I don't consider this one a "foof". This is art, plain and simple (and my course of study in college was a degree in fine art, so I'm a purist in that regard).

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
All of your hard work paid off nicely Tigs after lugging that big lens around and having to endure the yucky humidity - great shot of the majestic monarch getting some fuel!!!!!!!!!

. . . and it paid off as this is a terrific capture with fine details and nicely placed against the background as Nik said.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Perfectly stunning and stunningly perfect. Faves and nominated to the Art Council.
