Yup, hummer heaven there. I *wish* I could find the time to sit and capture one of the few I get here, now that Cardinal climber is blooming should be some.
This is my Plumie and a good example of my place on the learning curve of photography. I try these shots in the evening, and get the white overexposed due to the overall dimness (I think). But with those buds I should have a chance to redeem myself. I make the same mistake by placing things on a light background and trying to take close ups for detail. The light background makes the sample too dark.
