ooh... I love this one! We always get hummingbirds too, and I don't think I've ever even SEEN that point of liftoff... excellent capture!

Beautiful Photo!! Great timing, it's really cool being able to see all of it's wing and tail feathers, and the colors on her back is awesome. Reminds me of a little rocket ship heading straight up :)
