Hi Krzysztof !

Splendid wychwytywania tego 2 w 1.
Nawet jak mówię 3 w 1. Piece i dwa błędy na zdjęciu!
Moje gratulacje.
A pleasant, niedziela
Adrian

Witam
Ładna scenka, motyl w porównaniu z resztą ciała ma długaśne wąsy, już kilka takich owadów spotkałem przeważnie nie mieściły mi się w kadrze.
Co do zdjęcia ładne naturalne kolory o bardzo dobrze rozmyte tło.
