  1. Cool! Is that 6 birds or multiple shots? What is the white background? Inquiring minds want to know.

  2. That is a house off in the distance bathed in sun. And multiple shots it is, yea it ain't journalism. But it sure is easy add or take away in a photograph. I can remember in my other life when I would spend 3 weeks perfecting a photo that I would blend 5 negatives together. They of course were not of hummingbirds, but black & whites of landscapes. incorporating many elements. I sold a photograph I had spent several weeks on "Tommy's Comet" I called it. A take off on Haley's Comet & at the same time it was coursing the northern skies. I didn't really want to sell it but winter was coming on & living on an island off the coast of Maine with 3 little ones made for a quick decision. So the collector from NY has it squirreled away I suppose. He turned out to be a dear friend.
