Flying at You!!
by Liz Bickel

Humming Bird Moth in Flight

In the Wild

It took maybe a half dozen tries,
but I finally managed to get the flight shot I wanted
with the face of the moth coming toward me.

This was hard to do since the moth was mainly in the plants.
Thus, it was difficult to get a non obstructed, head on view.

I focused on the moth. And used my Macro lens for this wide angle tele image. Hand held, of course.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Super composition, Liz. Great flight catch too. I love seeing these guys as we don't have them here. :)
