Magical Pictures Of Hummingbirds’ Wings Shining Like Rainbows by Christian Spencer.
Theseare several photos captured by photographer Christian Spencer starring a black and white Jacobin hummingbird flying in front of the sun and filtering the light through its wings, causing a prismatic effect.
In 2011, Christian captured the movements of birds for a movie, entitled The Dance of Time. After receiving 10 international awards, the film also won other awards.
Per Christian while I briefly wish I was a hummingbird until I realize how much I hate my heart feeling like it’s about to beat out my chest:
The photo captures the exact moment in which the sunlight penetrates the wings of a Black and white Jacobin hummingbird revealing a secret of nature that cannot be seen with our eyes.
Although Winged Prism seems too magical to be true, Spencer says that there wasn’t any digital manipulation involved. “There is no special technique,” he explains, “just diffraction of light through the wings of this special hummingbird.”
The sun striking the wings of a Jacobin hummingbird, producing a beautiful prism effect. At that moment, it looked as if the tiny birdy was a tiny flying rainbow.
Beautiful, isn’t it? You know sometimes Mother Nature really does let her inner beauty shine.

Some lyrics from the song “Everything Must Change,” James Ingram
There are not many things in life
You can be sure of, oh no, no, no
Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
Hummingbirds they do flap
Their wings and go by by, oh fly
Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds they do fly

THANK YOU
VERY VERY PRETTY
I REALLY APPRECIATE / VERY ORIGINAL AS COMMENT
VERY BEAUTIFUL SONG THAT I DID NOT KNOW! I AM FRENCH.
I WOULD LIKE TO SEND YOU BACK THESE SOUNDS OF SONG YOU CERTAINLY KNOW …
WITHOUT SEEING SOMETHING OF MORBID / I LOVE THE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THIS CATCHY TUNE…
There ain’t no grave can hold my body down
There ain’t no grave can hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound I’m gonna rise right out of the ground
Ain’t no grave can hold my body down
Well, look way down the river, what do you think I see?
I see a band of angels and they’re coming after me
Ain’t no grave can hold my body down
There ain’t no grave can hold my body down
Well, look down yonder Gabriel, put your feet on the land and see
But Gabriel don’t you blow your trumpet ’til you hear it from me
There ain’t no grave can hold my body down
Ain’t no grave can hold my body down
Well, meet me Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
And if these wings don’t fail me I will meet you anywhere
Ain’t no…

I had no idea that light passing through a hummingbird’s feathers would give this effect. The prism effect gives me the same sort of thrill I get from discovering examples of Leptothrix discophora films on water. Thank you for bringing us this beauty.

Whether in the water or the sky where the light interferes and reflects, it will always appear the color spectrum of the rainbow! At least as our eye perceives it.
