Wildlife & Nature Shortlist

The variety of hummingbirds in Peru is incredible, with more than 100 species recorded. This series photographs these birds in action, most of them at full speed, capturing split-second moments that were once impossible to record.

I am an avid wildlife photographer and I have been doing this hobby for over 10 years. I am a busy physician but any time off or vacation, I spend my time traveling different places of the world to find the most beautiful species, Peru my native country is special for me as it has over 120 species of hummers. Sony made a difference in my ability to capture this super fast bird in flight.
