Very nice shot, Tatjana.
Sharp details and well saturated colors.
I actually like the central position in this composition, and the perfect symmetry that it affords.
The blurred green BG shows off the clipper very nicely.
Danke.

Hello Tatjana,
Very beautiful photo of this butterfly. Amazing sharp details. Left and right wing are totally symmetric. Great natural light and colours and very good POV, DOF, composition and OOF BG.

Hello Tatjana, your butterflies are always impressive, the details are great on this one and the exposure is perfectly done. The composition is fine and your background is beautiful, thanks!

Hello Tatjana,
Thank you for your kind critique on my recent picture of a Hoverfly.
A cursory glance at your portfolio reveals some very good micro work.
I have chosen your picture of a butterfly with its wings open because it catches the eye in its thumbnail form.
It is a very sharp and colourful image of a Clipper.
The picture is technically outstanding.
Thanks for sharing it and regards.
