    Default Ruby & Canna

    I shot this a few nights ago. I had hoped to be able to share a few more humingbird images but work has been a little crazy. I had been wanting to use a larger flower for a while now to try and show some scale, but had to wait for this one to start to bloom. It was a little more challenging than using smaller flowers, however this is what I got for my effort.

    Another wonderful capture Mike. Love the colour palette, and the detail here.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
