I'll admit. This was total luck. I was in the back yard using my Voigtlander 50/1.0 Nokton and while focused on the hummingbird feeder, this guy showed up for a few seconds.
Very artistic shot ! Your comment about the manual focus jogged a long forgotten memory . When I first started photography, I had no idea about anything or what I was doing. Someone told me - Do manual everything ! I took it literally not know any better and trying focusing on everything hummingbirds, dragonflies, etc manually . It was a learning experience.
