Hi Catherine,
that is one of the top butterfly portraits on TN, and there are many to choose from! Sophisticated, the light against you that sculpts the wings nicely. You were fortunat with the flower, they don't compete withthe butterfly in terms of showiness. I appreciate a lot the fact that you present a species not often seen. Thank you for this.
Best regards

Hi Catherine. A fine close up from the summer. We have had a summers like day today in southern England. You have taken this
Satyrium ilicis with sharp focusing and fine detail in the body and wings. i like the side view so we can see the markings. Your use of the bright light has given natural colours. well taken TFS.

marvelous macro capture of the dark beauty with superb details, Catherine!
I like the great contrast between the colors of the butterfly and the flowers. The blurry BG enhances the beauty of the shot. The sharpness and POV are perfect.
Great composition!

Thanks for your recent visit.

Wonderful details on the butterfly wings which indicates a well exposed shot, the blue colors of the flower in the foreground and the diffused BG adds value to the picture and is pleasant on the viewer's eye
