I believe its a Hummingbird moth, a website for some more info: http://www.fcps.edu/StratfordLandingES/Ecology/mpages/hummingbird_moth.htm

 

Nice capture, good framing and lighting. A faster shutter speed would have been able to freeze his wings, though showing their action is also nice.

The composition is quite nice with just enough detail in the shadowed area. I love the graininess, what an excellent way to show a sand image.

This is my first time posting on this site so I hope that I do this correctly. This image caught my eye this morning because of the pipes/lines and the repetition of shapes. The complimentary colors of blue and yellow are very effective. The window imitates the shapes of the boxes and the holes in the wall in the upper left. It's interesting that there is a bit of plastic in one of those holes and in the window, thus creating another sense of repetition. The child in the window seems to be one of those moments that can make or break an image and here the curiousity of the child works very well. The lace in the window juxtaposed against the "hard" lines and shapes of the wall speak greatly to the human spirit. The only thing I would suggest is that you give just a tiny bit more space on the right hand side, so that the box there doesn't merge with the edge of the photo so much. Very nice image!
