A Hummingbird Hawk Moth
by Kenty
I noticed this insect over a few mornings but it was too quick for me. I then decided to just wait with camera ready (hand held) and on the next morning I spotted it darting from flower to flower - it hovered for a second at a time and this is the best shot out of about 50!!
Taken in a garden in Spain.

This is an amazing shot John, they say photography is, right place, right time and of course timing itself and you have achieved all three in this photograph - well done
