Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote. *Marvin Simkin* L.A. Times (1992)

That's an angry looking spider. Cool pix.
A government is the most dangerous threat to man�s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.

Just curious as to the shutter speed for the hummer? They've not showed up yet here, but when they do, the wife wants to give them a try.

Flash will stop action very well. Without flash, I have trouble stopping their wings at anything less than 1/1000th sec.

Jasontx: Well the hummingbirds finally showed up last evening. The wife sat out there for half an hour and scored one pretty good one. Need to get the book out for an ID effort. 1Minute
