A nice shot of this insect although the image lacks sharpness of focus but overall the structure of the composition has been well met with the subject filling the framework well.

welcome back Jack with this excellent macro of a hummingbird moth; it would be nice to indicate the precise name; it could be a Snowberry clearwing (Hemaris diffinis)

    Hey I am a old truck driver and I definitely don't know what kind of bugs fly around my flower garden but I think they are cool. By the way thanks for the welcome back. Jack

That is a beautiful butterfly or moth, I have never seen one like it before! You have captured it very well John, with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones appear natural. It's a beautiful vibrant pink flower too and I love the way the color of the flower shows through the transparent wings. Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

A nice looking hummingbird moth. He is shown in good detail getting nectar from your azaleas. The shot is nicely cropped and the colors are great. Best of luck in the contest.

A pretty good nature shot posted here! Your fine, full and central composition offers us nice views of both butterfly and bloom. Like the wing display. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

I love the colours in this the flowers vibrant pink against the tawny coloured bug. The shot is well focussed and you capture much detail. I like how the light catches the wings and makes transparent. An excellent entry good luck.
