    Hi Folks;

    I thought this male Broadbill Hummingbird captured at Madera Kubo in Madera Canyon, AZ was very colorful so I paired him up with a background finished in free Fotosketcher.

    Comments always welcome and appreciated

    Keep smiling

    Gus

    BTW; I did a redo of "Holiday Greeting card" I think you will like.

    Well done, Gus. The BG really sets this off. Perfect pose and colors.

    Gus,
    I agree with Maureen and Steve.
    I love the eye contact and the complementary watercolor background works very well.

    Gus, Beautiful colors! I really like the drop shadow presentation that you have been doing for your cards. Any chance you could share the how-to so we could add it to the board? Thanks!

    Agree with everything that has been said already... the colors are awesome and the eye contact really makes it standout.

    Really looks like an oil painting, Gus. Wonderful pose, composition, & processing. I like the canvas texture to the BG and color, but might lighten up the BG just a tad. Nice work!
