This is an absolutely gorgeous photograph of the hummingbird moth and flower. It's not an easy task to get a clear shot of a moving target! I love it. Best if luck in the contest!

Stunning image of the Hummingbird Moth against the mottled background. The composition is excellent and the color tones appear very natural. Clarity is sharp.

Absolutely awesome!!!! You so nailed the focus! I know how hard it is to capture a Hummingbird mother and you did an exceptional job! Bravo for this amazing shot. Love how you got the extended proboscius. You definitely earned six stars from me. Good Luck in the contest! :o) Helvi

this is such a good capture. I never heard of a sport motion mode. What kind of camera? This looks like a painting. Goodluck in the contest.

    I use a Canon EOS M50 which is an older model but has many fun internal settings like the sports mode. Thanks again!

A wonderful stop action shot of a difficult subject (Hummingbird moth) in flight. Lovely composition with the moth hovering over the yellow centred white flower. Great clarity, lighting and background blur. All the best in the contest!

That is some fine Hummingbird Moth and will ya look at that straw. You have done a fine job with stopping the action and focusing, great DOF, just right. These moths don't stop flying. This shot tells a story and makes you wonder. I like the red on the wing. Thank you for sharing. Good luck in the contest. Ray
