I am happy to announce the winner of the Ada Mascot Competition - Entry #5 - "Lady Fairy" the hummingbird. The mascot was designed by Leah Goodreau.
http://gnoga.com/mascot.html
Leah writes "My mascot was inspired by Ada Lovelace's adolescent fascination with flight and Charles Babbage's nickname for her, "Lady Fairy." The coloration of the mascot references the Asian fairy-bluebird, while the silhouette is a hummingbird because of their famed speed and sleekness."
If have asked Leah for permission to give out her contact information if any one is interested in custom versions of her work, any one interested in receiving her information, please feel free to contact me.
