Fantastic shot! Those are so difficult to capture, buzzing around so fast. Did you use flash on this one?

Man, I have been looking for one of these guys for a while! Beautiful shot, in flight no doubt!

Fantastic capture!

What a fine photo - easy to see why some bird field guides show this as a not-to-be-confused-with-a-hummingbird.

Spectacular capture Sayer! Very sharp and beautiful. These are not easy to get
either! V

Great timing on a great shot Sayer. I've tried to capture one of these and hand yet to get anything!

Several friends told me to look at this shot. We are all completely blown away at the talent and professionalism. I have looked through only a few of your pictures, but I am inspired to go out and buy a new camera, maybe even join pbase. As soon as I have time I'm going to look at more of your galleries. From what I have seen, I can't wait to see more. I know I'll never reach your level but I think it would be lots of fun to try. Thanks!!!

Sayer this is so beautiful. Vivid colors and such sharpness. Every now and then I come to enjoy your work and as always my heart leaps at your talent. You are, as always, amazing.

WOW- I remember you chasing these around Accotink and never catching a shot. You sure got a great shot this time!

Beautifully detailed shot Sayer, I particularly like the transparency of the wing, difficult to capture well. Vibrant image....
