Beautifully done, particularly with the motion blur of the wings. Amazing.

A perfect catch. Kudos! They are so hard to get a photo of, always moving. They're driving me insane - and the worst thing is that they only come to our place in very warm summers. You might spend the whole summer waiting for one, then one will pop by for ten seconds and you don't have your camera ready. Moths are cruel! ;-)

Spectacular. It's almost like the flower is flying too.

PERFECT!
Very difficult subject and to get it with a great looking flower and perfect background is all the better.

"is it alive" must be meant as joke - it's a wonderful capture

I know what it means to capture such a fast moving Hummingbird Hawk. It's changing position every few seconds. You are patient and had the perseverance to do it. Congratulations. My Humminbird Hawk Moth is athttp://www.pbase.com/image/17637638 andhttp://www.pbase.com/image/17637518
