[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Hummingbird Hawk-moth is distributed throughout Eurasia from Portugal to Japan, but is resident only in warmer climates (Portugal, Spain, Germany, Italy, Greece, Turkey, North Africa, and points east). It is strongly migratory and can be found virtually anywhere in the hemisphere in the summer. However it rarely survives the winter in northern latitudes (e.g. north of the Alps in Europe, north of the Caucasus in Russia, etc.).

Buna Jozsef,

Bine surprins acest fluture aflat in permanenta miscare. Faptul ca ai reusit sa focalizezi corect pe ochiul insectei este o realizare.

Felicitari,
Cristian

Well done.

Marco

am fotografiat si eu chiar ieri acest animalut, sugand nectar din niste flori salbatice. nu stiam cum ii spune dar stiam ca il mai vazusem cand eram copil in curtea parintilor venind la florile din gradina.
la aceasta poza imi place faptul ca l-ai prins cu trompa adunata.
