(3,460 posts)Hat's off to you, beneficent moderator!
Your encouragement of others on DU--especially of those who may be reluctant to post their photos because they feel intimidated by the considerable skills of the professionals--is noticed and cherished. I don't need encouragement (I probably post too much) but appreciate thoughtful comments.
Best wishes for your continuing recovery!

(149,841 posts)I know what it's like not to be encouraged and I do try to be different from that.
And in no way do you post too much! I love your work.
My recovery continues, however glacially. I will be glad to be done with this pain.
Thank you, once again!

(3,460 posts)I wouldn't be surprised to find that some of our photographers work or have worked for well-known outfits.
Hummingbirds aren't that difficult to photograph at a feeder. Once they're accustomed to your presence they'll provide many opportunities to get close. Mostly it takes patience and some time on your hands. Retirement helps.
