What are the odds...
As I waw adding this comment I noticed the ants for the first time. I wonder why I never noticed before..? |

| Technically amazing and beautiful subjects. Honestly, it would be a better image without the effluent, but I have to give you credit on the timing and it's certainly much funnier as is. |

| Is that nectar? In a manner of speaking, I guess. Superb capture. Everything about it is outstanding. Bumping up. |

| Great clarity but the colours seem a little washed out. |
|
|
|

| You have got to be kidding? Bet you did not know you had this until after you saw it on the big screen. The clarity is perfect and color accurate. Good job. |

| What sweet little birds these are, very nice capture. Is that what I think it is, if so, no wonder you called it "Natures Calling". Once in a lifetime image here..... |

| I really like this image, but what makes it especially good is for the rarity of capturing the bird having a call of nature. |
|

Before I saw this, I didn't know that unlike all other birds, hummingbird urine is usually made up of the same clear, yellowish liquid (urea) that mammals produce.
Fascinating shot, well-titled! |

Great capture. The colours are great.

Good luck

| This is a wonderfully well executed picture. All the right pieces are in focus, the composition is great and the colours good. |
|
|

01/22/2006 12:25:25 AM |
| Wow! It really demonstrates how fast these little fellows move their wings: you got the motion blur on the wings but not on the s**t... |
|
|
|

| That is very funny. What are the odds of getting a hummingbird peeing!! Great shot. I bet you didn't even notice that until you checked in on your computer later |

| AWESOME!!!! sharp, interesting, and very pretty. I would have added a bit more colour to it and removed the watery stuff underneath the bird:) I wonder what it is. 7 POINTS !!! |

| I think this is probably the most unique dpc droplet photograph ever. |
|

|
01/19/2006 05:58:44 PM |
| Is that thing peeing? Good catch!!! |
|
|
|
01/19/2006 05:16:54 PM |
| damn, how did you manage to catch that? Just because of that, 8 |
|
|
|
01/19/2006 04:24:41 PM |
| wow those little critters move fast nicely captured. love the colors - it the little guy peeing? I am not sure if this adds or detracts from the pic? Well shot none the less 8 |

| A slight more contrast to bring out the orange trumpet vine and greens and you get a blue. |
|
|
|
01/19/2006 03:09:10 PM |
| Wow. THAT is not something you see everyday. Sorry I bet this is one of those "If I had a nickle for.." situations. I think the shot is amazing in its composition and color. Not to mention the unusual capture. 9 |
|

| I had to back up for a second look here...a true calling of nature! :-) Love the sharpness and the coincidental capture! |
|

| There are a lot of "good" shots in this competition. This is one of the few "great" shots that really makes me say "wow". 9. |

| Now *that* is something you don't see every day!! |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 07:36:05 PM |
| The is a wonderful shot, great timing on a very fast little bird. 10 |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 02:51:40 PM |
| Now, that's amazing! This little guy is hard enough to catch but to catch him in this situation is short of a miracle! |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 02:04:25 PM |
| Oh My God! Knowing how hard it is just to get a clear shot of hummingbirds. . . and on top of it to catch her peeing. You get a 10 from me. If I could double it I would. BOL |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 01:13:05 PM |
| Very cute! It's something different to see a hummingbird going pee! Nicely caught. |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 12:59:43 PM |
| Can't always choose your moment, but this one is unique! |
|
|
|
01/17/2006 07:49:26 AM |
| What a shot! Now that's luck! |
|
|
|
01/16/2006 10:07:05 PM |
| Oh, I remember this one! One of the great spontaneous captures of all time. A little blah color-wise, but jaysus... |
|
|
|
01/16/2006 06:09:27 PM |
| Making room for the next meal I guess? Regardless...this is a great shot of nature in action. Vivid color, great detail..nice "stop action". Love this shot. |
