Awesome shot, hadn’t seen a head-on picture before. They’re fascinating creatures, I love when they fly through here on their way somewhere! I’m in the desert, didn’t dream I’d be seeing them…

Terrific image, and so sharp, too!

I love the way that the reds are counterbalanced on the perch and the insect’s head and that the blues are found on the head and the wings; well composed.
