A profoundly tragic photograph of great beauty and humanity, sheer hommage. It evoked, in me, Dylan Thomas's voice: "Rage, rage against the dying of the light...".

Very nice great show of talent, I see no over saturation here, and I used a 23 inch Apple TFT professionally clibrated Studio monitor.

The thumbnail made me think this would be a good picture, and I wasn't disappointed. Perfect lighting (including the chin) and great focus/contrast. One of my top picks.

Hi John:

Awesome shot!! congrats on your top ten finish. Last weekend I sat by our humming bird feeder at the cottage, lens up for about an hour waiting for a shot. I finally gave up as no birds showed up. With camera back in bag, I walked back up to the cottage. Turning around for one final look, guess what was feeding at the trough. :(

Again congrats, great capture

Coley

Congrats on your first ribbon!!!

Good photo. Hard flash shadows bugging me a bit, softbox would have done a lot. Still thinks its a very good shot, 9
