Here's my submission. This motion was almost too much, still took some sharpening to bring it out.

The hummingbird is a great symbol of motion, those little guys never stop! It amazes me that the can stop on a dime in the air, hover there perfectly still except for the beating of their wings, and then just dart off at a blink of an eye.

Thanks T Paul. One observation about this challenge is that it is very difficult to find. I found this challenge from the "Home" page and that is the only way I have found to get to it. All the other Challenge links do include a link to this challenge. Maybe I am not looking in the right place?

I'm with kevin... hard link to find... had forgotten it several times.. thought it was just me..

Gallery Challenge #9 - Motion (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4153)

I think your posts belong over there (above link). Maybe if T Paul moves them over, the thread will be easier to find?

The posts are in the correct place, but I agree these challenges tend to get overlooked, because you have to go to the gallery forum to find them...not to be confused with the gallery which is completely different ;)

I'll talk to Doug and see if it is possible to place a link to all the various challenges on this great web site from the CHALLENGES (http://www.retouchpro.com/challenge/index.html) page.

Cheers
