Sun Setting on a Hummer & Tulip

Sun Setting on a Hummer & Tulip

This was just a lucky catch. My wife got some tulips for her birthday and I took one out as the sun was setting to try a get a nice shot. I put the vase down & as soon as I turned my back I heard the hummer behind me, I turned back around and had time to get off one shot before she realized she wasn’t interested in tulips.
Captured in Cave Creek, Arizona, with a Canon 20D.
