Default Hi all

I've been lurking on DPS for quite a while. Mostly reading the newsletter and trying my best to follow all the tips and advice. I would like to contribute/share some of my photos with this great group of guys and gals. Hope you enjoy them.

Ruby-throat Hummingbird

Please let me know if I've broken any rules. I think I read them all. But you never know.

thanks

the only rule you have broken is posting an incredibly beautiful capture on your 13th post...other than that no rules broken

A stunning picture - lurk no longer - I'm sure I'm not the only one among us that wants to see more.
Welcome aboard.

This is awesome....this may sound stupid...but is this a real flower? What kind? This looks huge compared to the hummer...

Welcome to DPS! What a great way to start! Your photo is so colorful, that I almost missed the Humming Bird in the lower right hand. That a Bannana flower isn't it?
Thanks for sharing this
Michael.
