Very good photo of this Nymphalidae!
Excellent on details and colours!
Very good BG and POV
Keep on going and TFS!

Nice shot Jan!
Very good composition. It is not so easy to take a photo of a dark insect.
Maybe a little bit noisy? A (free) software like NoiseWare would be helpful for you to improve this pic. You should find it easily on internet.
Regards.

Nicely composed Jan. I like the diagonal position of the b'fly in the shot. Good presentation. TFS

Great POV and DOF and good details. Composition is great and good exposure.

Hi Jan,
It's a beauty! Flawless composition and framing here. Exposure looks great with the beautiful saturated colors and sharp detail. Very good OOF green backround really makes him stand out well.

Excellent capture Jan,
Good detail, colours and sharpness.
Composition and exposure are good. Good POV and framing.
Thanks for posting, enjoy the rest of the week.

Great capture of this Araschnia levana. This is a rather small specie. I would add that the spring breed, which looks completly different is a bit larger in size than the summer one.

Regards, Petru

Hi Jan,
