This is just stunning! The focus is tack sharp! The butterfly and the flower are so pretty! The soft background makes the butterfly really stand out! The colors are fantastic! Great job and a pleasure to view! Lori

Colorful capture. The angle of the shot of this butterfly and flowers is great. The capture of the light is great. The clarity is great. The image is balanced and very eye appealing to the viewer. Great eye and great job overall

Still even without that annie,you have created a really good nature shot in this,and I think the pastel colour of the butterfly/flower blends in well with the background...brian

This is a lovely mixed media photo of the butterfly! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked well. Good effort!

Greece sure gave you some super shots. This is lovely. There is something about the hues of green and yellow accented by the white flowers that is so beautiful and at the essence of nature. Another subtle perfect background compliments the subjects. Fine detail completes a wonderful piece of art.

Even with closed wings, this butterfly you have captured is quite lovely. I have never seen anything like it. What makes it even more interesting to me is that its wings look just like leaves of tree with one of them starting to turn yellow because of the autumn time of year.
I love what you have done with the background keeping some of the grass up close within the frame and the farther you go back the more non textured it becomes.
Your up close and personal shot of him brings out his personality too. He looks so wonderful with his yellow underneath him and the darkness on top and his eye has such a glow to it. Having both flowers especially the one he is sitting on in the frame is lovely too. I am glad you did not clone out the second one that his wing is partially covering. Even though there are no THREE flower, there ARE three items within your fame which make it pleasant and perfect as with professional photographers.....
This is an excellent photograph. You should have entered it in my contest. I am sure it would have made it in the top three for certain at the voting booth.
I thank you for sharing.
EXCELLENT~~~~If I would have had a six left, you would have gotten it with this photo. Unfortunately, I do not; therefore, a virtual six is all I can give you at the moment.

Your focus and stop action on this butterfly are superb. The clarity and sharpness on the eye, antennae and the proboscis are outstanding.

A beautiful image. The detail in the butterfly is amazing. I especially like the extended proboscis. The setting is beautiful and the colors are outstanding.

This is beautiful! The colors are lovely. The sharpness and detail on the butterfly are excellent. I love the soft blades of grass in the background.

This is an exquisite capture.

All of the technical factors are dialed in perfectly.

Every aspect of the butterfly and the blossom it is on are absolutely razor sharp.

In my mind what sets this piece above many others is your timing has caught the entire proboscis fully extended. Plus all the legs and the antenna are clear and well seen.

Your post capture processing of the background gives this a dreamy other worldly look that compliments both the flower and the insect.

Very excellent work ... B-)) Bob
