Zooming at you, this one almost looks like an F-15 Eagle, or maybe a 'ship' from a Star Trek intro. The highlights are due to him flying through a shaft of sunlight coming through a tree - his head has already passed it! (No triggers, strobes or multi flashes; 1/160, f2.8; no PS)

Way cool DT Rick and with him watching over it, what can go wrong. Awesome clarity and the wings are amazing. Perfect post and so glad you shared it.

Brilliant capture. The appropriate background doesn't add or detract away from the subject. GO GO GO!

It's perfect for the desktop! I feel like the hummingbird is going to bust thru my monitor. Very nice capture.

Emptiness is not nothingness. It is simply the opposite of full of it.
