Today could be the day of the Blues. There are good numbers of pictures on them. This one is a nice close up.

I was thinking of you as I wrote to Pablo today...yes we would be sorely in need of images if you do not post...yours are ones which I learn from..These kid of pictures are the ones which inspire me to keep on trying for that one notch higher...so don't go too far now! We will hold you to your promise to keep coming back:-)

Hello Sumon,
an admirable and perfect capture of this small Lycaenide. The background is highly appropriate
to show the butterfly in absolutely good contrast.
Furthermore, the picture is beautifully composed.
Best wishes, Peter

Great photo... great note... wonderful detail highlighted by shallow DOF.

It must be a metaphysical India thing, but I have no idea how a butterfly consisting entirely of warm tones can be called "blue". :) ;)

Hi Sumon,

A beautiful butterfly on a tree whose bark is the perfect color. The wing markings are so pretty with wonderful soft colors. Excellent details - even of the antennae. You never fail to have a superb composition.

Hello Sumon,

I'm not quite sure why it is called a blue when it is definitely not that colour. It actually doesn't matter because the shot is just great ... and it would be great no matter what the creature is called!
The detailed, patterned wings have a lovely irridescence about them and I love the stripes on the antennea and the legs!
The diagonal twig helps to make the composition really good.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

I don't ever remember seeing a Gram Blue photo on TN and then I see yours and Smithas on the same page :-))
A lovely capture of this beautiful butterfly.
The morning light has cast a lovely warm glow over the photo.
Pin-sharp and very detailed.
Great parallel POV.

Well done, Sumon!

Hello Sumon, this is a beautiful shot of this Gram Blue. The lighting is very good resulting in excellent definition on the butterfly. The colours are excellent with very excellent sharp detail. Depth of field is good in setting the butterfly separate from his background. I liked the angled stick you found him on, but I was thinking I might have turned it by 90 degrees so he would be heading up. It's not a big deal, but I prepared a workshop to examine this other possibility.

Thanks, John

Wow, what a brilliant macro of this tiny Gram Blue, Sumon!
Your hand-held shots are better than the ones people shoot with tripods.
Amazing sharpness, details and colours.
It is going to be my favourite.

Dear Sumon,
Marvellous ..One look at this presentation of the Gram Blue and anyone's blue could just get blown away....it is sheer joy to look at this composition...amazing sharpness and clarity and spot on focus.
The details on those wings have been picked up brilliantly by the sunlight. I like the way the BG seen at the right side shows its environment.
Very well done.
TFS & Cheers
