This must be one of the prettiest hummingbirds out there. The colours on this bird truly are amazing, so its no wonder I spent more time photographing this species than most others.As this was my best attempt at trying to get the wings in focus and at a shutter speed of 1/5000 it just shows how perfect conditions must be to get everything exactly right.
