That's not even "thinking outside the box",
"Shoe-horning", a super photo, Yes.

Some might say, "Gee, could have photographed a speeding train", all of our First-Steps taken on 2-Legs, are Personal Triumphs (boring). But comparatively, everyone knows hummingbirds are "Faster-and-More-Elusive".

IF I got a more partial Frontal-Closeup shot of a fast moving Cheetah or a Charging white Rhino, that may have come in 2nd-Place. A Cheetah catching it's prey in middair, that's a triumph for both.
"Triumph" Spitfire... Not.

Although, as many have stated, this doesn't fit the challenge in the literal sense... to those who have ever tried taking shots of these amazing birds, triumph is the only word to describe your picture. This is an outstanding and, due to the elusiveness of the humdingers, very unique photograph!! Congrats on the blue, but mostly on being so patient in order to attain this thing of beauty!

I, amongst many others, am extremely envious and jealous!!!!
