Hello everybody,
today an image of this young butterfly in the fast and jerky flight. With the sun not easy to follow it and to see or it settles.

=> tks for the name of butterfly Aricia agestis and not lysandra coridon.

Bonjour Gaetan,

Marvellous shot of the 'female' Chalk-Hill Blue butterfly!
The colors are very well shown. I must quote that this is an exceptionally well taken shot with great sharpness and nicely chosen POV. The shallow DOF works great here. The contrast between the colors of the butterfly and the blurred light brown BG, is fantastic, indeed. Very well seen!

Have a nice weekend!

thanks and regards,
Paras Bhalla

Olá, Gaetan!

Greetings from Brazil,

Hi Gaetan,

This butterfly is so pretty in the lovely pose on the flower. I love seeing both sides of the wings and there is also a wonderful view of the eye and body. Wonderful colors, details and textures. I love the background and vertical composition.

Bonjour Gaetan,
Une image classique de trčs belle facture. La netteté sur les ailes d'Aricia agrestis est parfaite. Ton angle de vue permettant de voir les deux faces des ailes est excellent, c'est ainsi qu'une identification devient plus aisée. J'aime bien ton cadrage vertical et les couleurs naturelles. Trčs beau!
Une bonne fin de semaine
Anne

Hi Gaetan,
this one is excellently executed. all the details are seen very well, especially the patterns and dark eyes. The flower too is very complementing.
The blurry background too is very pretty and smooth, making your shot very pretty and pleasant.

Regards,
Foozi
