Hello to all, today I am going to raise to this butterfly colibri (Macroglossum Stellatarum), just at the moment in which unfolds its language to libar in this flower of thistle. Its buzzing flight, causes that although the speed of clogging is fast, the wings continue beating, reason why I believe that the movement effect is obtained. I hope that you like.

Fantastic image Jose. In fact I was confused when I first saw it. Is it a humming bird or a moth??? Anyway humming birds don't have antennas...It is a moth for sure. And you well captured her in flight. Very interesting animal. Beautiful composition. Well done.

What a lovely composition, Jose.
You caught that moth with great timing, and the blurred wings do suggest its hovering over the flower. Wonderful details and subtle colors, well shown against the blurred background.

Very good shot!
It's a moth. The specie is a Macroglossum stellatarum (Linnaeus, 1758).
Known as "Humming-bird hawk-moth" in english.
Also common in Potrugal.
Very good DOF!
Excellent details!
Very good POV!
5* and TFS!

Gran foto de nuevo. Perfecta congelación del movimiento, bien compuesta, nítida, buen fondo y acertada profundidad de campo.
Buen trabajo,
José M.

HOla José Luis, la alegría es recíproca, en esta web nos sentimos como perdidos en la inmensidad, por eso siempre resulta especial encontrarse con alguien "conocido", y sobre todo resulta especial recibir mensajes de fotógrafos como tú que consigues fotografías tan espectaculares como esta que nos muestras, es impresionante, felicidades y saludos cordiales.

Muy buena! y sin flash, que bien aprovechado el F:5.6
Tengo que practicar más con la 350D, ultimamente Crintina la tiene acaparada y me deja a mi la Sony, me decia de que no veia por que necesitaba gafas nuevas, pero le han llegado ayer, asi que ahora ya no tiene escusa.
Estoy disfrutando con tu galeria, cuantas me habia perdido.

Excellent shot Jose.
Really well caught moment.
This is a truly superb photo.

Regards

Roy

Greay shot. Perfect timing to show the unravelling of the tongue. Excellent DOF and an effective point of view as well. I like it a lot.

Excellent picture of a superb colibri bird with brilliant colors! Great composition and POV! The picture is very sharp with good exposure and DOF! Outstanding job! Congratulations and TFS!

Regards,
Eddie
