Hummingbird hawk-moth 2

I didn't expect another opportunity to photograph the same or perhaps another Hummingbird hawk-moth. However, the light was brighter this morning and I was surprised to see one on the same shrub and after a bit of effort I managed to isolate my subject against a pleasing background. These insects wings beat at 80/sec so high shutter speeds are essential.



That's what I was looking for.
