The Last One...?

On Sunday I decided to attach my macro lens and set up in the Garden for some super close ups....when all of a sudden this Hummer popped next to me. I just grabbed the camera hit auto focus and snapped...no thought ...no prep..so not a great shot...but it was exciting & fairly close... have not seen any since...so maybe the last one of the season...Thought I would share ......also a Skipper..my intended prey...!!

The fact that you were able to achieve sharp focus on the Skipper speaks well for your skills! When they face you, there is not much to focus on! Nice work!
