Hi Livio,
a simple and clear, straightforward approach can bring out something very powerful and creatively new - as here. Dianthus carthusianorum on a dry meadow, just seen from above, turns into an explosion of colour and shape - and probably very close to what its insect visitor may see and feel in approach. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Hello Ulla,
atmospheric beauty and an appealing rhythm in this simple and clear documentation of a dry meadow on a windy day in summer. Beautiful natural colours. Thank you!
With best regards,

Liebe Anne,
Gegenlichtaufnahme eines Distelfalters auf Kompositenblüten, wie sie eindrucksvoller und symbolträchtiger kaum denkbar ist. Ein Sinnbild des Abschieds und der Vorfreude von bleibender Schönheit, weit über die - in höchster Präzision gelungene - Dokumentation eines einsamen Wanderfalters im weit fortgeschrittenenen kühlen Herbst hinaus berührend.
Mit Dank und herzlichen Grüssen,
Peter

Hello Adrian,
spectacular presentation of the Rhine falls. Delightful colour contrast of cool and warm hues in the crisp and clear light of autumn sun, dramatic depth and motion. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Hi Maurizio,
phantastic presentation, monumental and gentle at the same time. Perfect in all aspects! I admire its precision into the finest detals, the perfect handling of light - bringing out a remarkable depth of hues in Aglaja's wings, showing the mother of pearl effect, and also mastering the very bright white petals without any overexposure. Excellent work. Unsurpassed.
With thanks, and best regards,
Peter

Hola Josep Ignasi,
impressing presentation of the Machaon caterpillar in a beautifully soft brightly colourful setting. Well approached, well detailed, pefectly clear. The caterpillars "weapon", the smelly yellow fork protruding from the neck, ideally demonstrated. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Hola Josep Ignasi,
eye-catching presentation of Arbutus unedo in beautifully subtle soft light. Powerful, simple and clear. Not as tasty as it looks, but looking very, very promising, indeed.
Very nice work. Thank you! With best regards,
Petet

Dear Gert,
an excellent, very precise, eye-catching presentation of P. nicias, a species that has rarely been shown here yet. Marvellous details, shining bright light perfectly managed to bring out finest hues of iridescent blue. Well supporting distant background with structures that are adding some quite spectacular dramatical tension. A masterpiece.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter

Hello Ori,
classically well composed landscape with solitary tree. Quintessentially simple and strong portrait of Acacia radiana in its natural habitat, demonstrating the tree's importance in its ecological role, and allowing us to see Jam haMelach from high above in the blue distance. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter

Dear Ivan,
always impressed by the wealth of clear details that you are achieving from a distance of 6 ft even when aiming at tiny butterflies like P. argus. Difficult light conditions of white brample blossom against dark distance in the shadow are well managed. Butterfly is seen in perfect light, finest details, and lively pose.
An unspectacular posting that touches me by its matter-of-fact simplicity and natural beauty. Thank you!
With best regards from cold and wet Vienna that is trapped under a several hundred meters thick layer of fog while there is said to be a clear blue sky, sunshine and warmth at all the surrounding hilltops just above, and out of reach for me today ...
