You need to invite me over to the smoking chair next to your smoking chair. I'll even bring a camera, suitable cigars and my best bourbon for the privilege! I do have some nice Islay Scotch that will do in a pinch, if the bourbon is not to your liking...
You, as well as any CP member in good standing, are always welcome to come have a smoke and a drink with me when in Connecticut. ...and don't even think about bringing your own smokes or booze. I'm sure I can come up with something to your liking.
WOW! These are really fantastic photos George, thank you.
I swear they come to the window and pose. The wife came back all excited yesterday telling me to grab my camera because the hummingbirds were in front of our picture window posing again!
Beautiful!
Thank you for the compliment! I've been trying to better improve my photos - so I do appreciate some appreciation I'm doing at least a passible job!

As far as submitting it for publication - I did that a few times, and have only been published once (though I've had several pictures appear on our local Fox news station). The one that was published got me exactly one copy of the magazine it was printed in - FOR FREE - with an offer to buy the next 12 issues at a discount (though I'm pretty sure it was the same discount anyone would get if they were to subscribe...).
I do want to thank you, though - for the years of dedicated service you've given all of us knuckleheads. Take me posting these photos on your board as a small measure of a thank you for your tolerance of us. I know we can be a rowdy bunch...
...and I'm working to be as good as JoeM. I have quite a ways before I get there but I'm determined not to give up!!!
