White-throated Mountaingem
San Gerardo de Dota
A little touch of evening sunlight in the Talamanca mountains brings out the colors and delicate iridescence of a white-throated mountaingem, a medium-sized hummingbird that lives at higher elevations. Soft light keeps highlights in both the subject and the background from blowing out and allows all the detail in the small feathers to come through. Viewed or photographed from the back, with only indirect light falling across him, the male mountaingem isn't able to show off his iridescent blue feathers, but we can see just a trace of shiny blue appearing on his throat and forehead.
