Description The title is from the fact that this insect is so fast, that it is a real challenge to take a decent picture of it.

I found some info about this bug on this web page [link]

Canon EOS 40D + Canon 70-200mm f4 L USM

WOW ej vsaka ti čast, da si ga ujel!!! Sem enkrat sam poskušal fotografirati metulje na ravniku. In morem reči, da je bilo prekleto težko zadevo ujet. Tko da razumem težo takšne fotografije

Mi rečemo tej žuželki po domače "kolibri". Kaj mogoče veš kako se mu prav reče?

Yes, too fast for me. Found one while on holidays in Croatia, but out of a whole bunch of shots, nearly noone was sharp or had a good composition.

Yep that's right it is very very fat and if you want to make some good images you need to take a lot of images, for this subject I manual focused and bursted so I managed to take about 150 images in a lapse of 20min .. 2 off them ware usable and one of theme is here now

Haha, that's good. To bad there aint any of those in Norway. By far the coolest insect I've seen. Thought it was a colibri at first ^^
