Just a wonderful capture. Beautiful colors. Nice tack sharp focus and perfect lighting and exposure. Awesome image, very well done. You should be very proud of this shot if it's your first butterfly.

Very nice capture. The definition of the butterfly is very good and the black and white contrast nicely with the subtle purple of the flower. I'm not a great fan of vignetting - but that's just my own preference. Nice capture.

This is a wonderful photo of the butterfly and the flower. I don't know anything about butterflies, except that they are gorgeous. The coloring on the butterfly is really quite unique. I don't think I've seen one this color before. They are so pretty and you got a great shot of this one. Thank you for sharing.

A nice catch but you lost it on the left with the focus. A bit soft.
The DOF is very good but I also feel the vignette is encroaching on the butterfly.
Thanks for sharing Lou

    Hi Lou. As usual I want to thank you for the review and the time spent. Still I disagree with your judgement. 4 is a bit low for this photo.

Beautiful catch. The vignetting is perfect for this picture. Very nice detail for 63mm. Thanks for sharing.
