Yellow warbler in flight. The success of the shot was a combination of few lucky elements:
- Strong light allowing for fast shutter speed
- Subject overhead and somewhat between the camera and the sun, creating that magical effect of almost translucent wings.
- Nice, diffuse surrounding lighting in the forest yielding a good overall exposure.

This is so pretty! The colors are to die for - and the bird in flight is spot on.
