Hi Fartash,
Nice to see you back after a while. Hope everything is OK. This is a fabulous shot of the Blue Tiger with very impressive sharpness and nice colours and markings on its wings. Great lighting and you have captured a classical pose on these charming Lantana flowers. Excellent POV and composition. Kudos.
TFS.

Great image of the butterfly, Fartash.
The composition is superb and the blurred BG is ideal.
Thanks for sharing the image and all the best.

Hello Fartash,
This is a wonderful butterfly that you've captured very nicely here seeking nectar on the pink Lantana. Fine details and beautiful colours against the green background. Very well composed too.
Many thanks, Ulla

Hi Fartash.
What a delicate flash work. Have you used diffuser? Wonderful scene and composition. Simply perfect reproduction of the tiny flowers and difficult for exposure butterfly. Coloursful BG is amazing too. Well done and TFS.

Hello Fartash,
This butterfly is of great beauty and elegance. I like your shot for its colours and also because the Blue Tiger is just very busy and doesn't care about your presence;-)
Have a nice day
