, 1/1600 f/8.0, ISO 640, hand held.

La sfinge del galio o sfinge colibrì (Macroglossum stellatarum (Linnaeus, 1758) è un lepidottero appartenente alla famiglia Sphingidae, diffuso in Eurasia e Nordafrica; è conosciuto anche col nome di farfalla sfinge o sfinge colibrì. Quando attiva, passa con estrema rapidità da un fiore all'altro senza mai posarsi: resta in volo librato su di essi per pochi secondi battendo velocemente le ali ad una frequenza di 70-80 volte al secondo, al pari dei colibrì più piccoli e protendendo la lunga spirotromba verso i fiori per suggere il nettare, analogamente ai colibrì. Ha abitudini diurne e crepuscolari. Vola nei mesi caldi dell'anno e si posa solo per riposare dopo il crepuscolo, ben nascosta dalla vegetazione, coprendo con le ali anteriori le posteriori e lasciando scoperto l'addome.

Always a bell exercise do the macroglossum..
Yesterday was full of butterflies all beautiful and fresh, in addition to painted lady and Pararge Argeria, Citronella, I caught a fantastic swallowtail that had the only defect to be devilish :-)

Hello Fulvio, thank you for the compliment, I also saw a swallowtail about a week ago, but I was unable to approach it for a shot, today I saw also a Podalirio, the season is really in advance. I wish you a good evening, Hello Fabrizio

Subject not easy to resume for rapid movement from one flower to another. You did a nice job with the subject well in focus and beautiful it blurred. Congratulations!
