[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I don't know what the exact name of this insect is, but it was so amazing, fast and nonstop moving on flowers. I put my setting on "Action Program" and start to burst this amazing creature. Hopefully I was lucky to freeze it in 2 shot, that one of them is face to face (I going to upload it in next post) and this one from above. The most interesting part is even with 1/1250 sec shutter speed, the wings still are not freezing. Hope you like it.

Yes Alireza i loved it. The moving wings are the specialty here, it gives the sense of moving object, the body is stationary where as wings r in motion. Fantastic!
Excellent sharpness and composition!

Very fine job

Hi Alireza,

Great shot of this hummingbird in action. Very sharp and the flower has wonderful colors. I think it would be very difficult to freeze their wing action. They do look like insects, but are birds and the only group that can actually fly backwards. My wife recently hung a hummingbird feeder in our back yard, but we're still waiting for one to partake in the feast!

TFS,
Werner

Hello Alireza,

Excellent shot!
Perfect timing and wonderful colors and sharpness!
Congratulations and TFS
Sergio

What a capture! Beautifully done. Sharp, clean, beautiful detail and perfect timing.

Personally I think a crop on the right - just to the right of the central flower - would improve the balance of the shot?
