Stunning image of the butterfly on echinacea flower. Your focus is sharp and the pattern of the butterfly is shown with clarity.
Love the flower also and your composition is spot on with excellent bokeh in background.

Cone flowers are one of my favorite flowers. You captured this one very well and you were lucky enough to have a visitor stop by for a split second. Your background is perfect. A great shot Nieve.

Nieves, I love your butterfly on the Echinacea flower. I have a bed loaded with Coneflowers and Lupine out back, my favorites to look at. You have done a fine job capturing this butterfly sampling the Coneflower. Ray

    Thanks, Ray.

    WOW! Looks like you have a beautiful garden. I never have any of this and never planted Lupine at all in my whole life. You take care.

This is a beautiful composition of colors and geometric elements. The colors flow perfectly from the pale yellow green background to the yellow orange butterfly into the orange red cones to the pink petals like a spectrum. This was a great capture!

Nieves,
A very beautiful picture of the Frittilary Butterfly on the Cone flower both stand out clearly from the blurred green background. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

An excellent image of an orange butterfly wings outspread showing the beautiful patterns in its wings. I love how the pink coneflower petals look a bit windswept yet the butterfly remains still. Lovely soft background and the details in your capture are wonderful!

Beautiful, the little butterfly has such a gorgeous coneflower bloom to perch on! Excellent focus and exposure, the colors are beautiful and the background is non-distracting and really sets off this pair!
