Ciao Sergio. Davvero eccellente il dettaglio e intritante gioco di luce che esalta i colori. Se, come credo, presa all'interno, questo è un gran colpo.

Excellent photo, great sharpness, colors and details, very good presentation!

Excelente ampliación Sergio. Un documento " de libro " por lo bien que se aprecian sus caracteres. Enhorabuena por la id, nada fácil en este tipo de especies, al menos para los que somos profanos. Suave luz aunque más que suficiente. Buen trabajo!
