Very fine Fartash...I hope to hear from you soon! Hope all is well with ou....A beauty of a butterfly you have caught this time. Not only is it educational...it is almost a spiritual image of the insect. Very good colours and great tonal quality!

Hello Fartash,
Excellent macro of a Common Lime Swallowtail with a fine DOF, lighting and good sharpness that shows the body and most of the wings very clearly from the side. Excellent contrast with the dark green foliage BG.
A great capture my friend and thanks for sharing it!
Cheers,
Ivan

Hi Fartash, superb capture of splendid butterfly with fantastic colors, great details and excellent sharpness, very well done, ciao Silvio

Fartash, I have always liked the general tone of your images. There is something special about it and it is manifest in this picture of Common Lime.
The profile view of the butterfly offers great details and colours on the subject's outer wing and head.
Well done and thanks.

Hi Fartash,

I missed this beautiful Common Lime. What I find the most wonderful are the deep rich colors - just marvelous. Nice position of the butterfly and excellent details of its head and wing markings. The leaves look so lovely and fresh adding to the superb composition.
