Tiny Tuesday ...

... playing peek-a-boo.

Today was incredibly warm, windy and very humid.  And as I type this up we are getting a doozy of a storm roll through.  Hopefully this will bring some relief from the heat and humidity.  But storms like this at this time of year often have the opposite effect.

We got out after lunch for a short, hot walk at Housenick Memorial park.  And then upon our return we refreshed ourselves in the pool.  As we were playing our version of pickleball (in the pool) Richard saw this beautiful hummingbird back on the bee balm.  Good thing I had brought my camera out to the pool with me.  

Of course, she was on the shaded area of the bee balm so my ISO was ridiculously high ... I was shooting at 1/2000th of a second.  But since I always shoot in RAW I was able to recover the photo nicely in Photoshop.  I've added another shot to my Facebook feed.  It was a hard toss up as to my favorite shot. The Facebook shot is a more traditional shot with her wings back. 

Thanks to JDO (Jill) for hosting Tiny Tuesday all this month.  Please have a look full screen.
