Description
Quite a few years ago, my dad, R. W. Scott, took this photos with 35mm film and an Olsen "Ultra" High Speed flash. I was publishing his images on the web at GregScott.com, and he gave me the original so I could try a drum scan on it. It was an A quality image (for a relatively drab female) with an overly complex background of cardinal vine. I was learning Photoshop at the time, so I digitally stripped out the background, editing the transitional pixels by hand, very laboriously. I put it on a prominent location on my website. At the time, it was the highest resolution hummingbird image that i could find on the search engines. It continued to be highly ranked on search engines for years. It often shows up first in Google searches. Unfortunately, often it is a pirated copy of the image, used without permission or attribution. I frequently DO give permission to use this photo for various purposes, sometimes for a fee, and sometimes for free. Please request permission before using this, or any of my photos. My dad gave me rights to all of his images. Please do not use our images for any purpose without written permission.
