Photographer Captures Incredible Images of Hummingbird's Wings Turn Into Rainbows (8 Pics)

When professional artist and photographer Christian Spencer saw a black Jacobin hummingbird flitting near his verandah in Rio de Janeiro, he was stunned to see a magical rainbow shining through its wings. Check out a number of the images from the stunning series below.

Many have asked if Winged Prism is edited, as it looks to magical to be true, but Spencer insists there was no digital manipulation. "There is no special technique, just diffraction of light through the wings of this special hummingbird." "Nobody ever could have ever dreamed that this was a reality," he says. "I receive emails every day from people across the world touched by these images."
