Hi Krzysztof

Very nice macro shot from you here! The orange-tip is a very photogenic butterfly and you took full advantage of its beautiful colors and pattern here. The side POV is excellent and the sharpness on its entire body is impeccable - i really like all those nicely visible hairs everywhere.
Personally, i feel it's just a little bit underexposed. I understand that you wanted to isolate it as well as possible from the BG and a dark BG would have made that better, but i think you lost a little bit of the highlights.
Also, i think i prefer this shot as opposed to the one in the WS - the hairs at the tip of the wing are more natural :)
Even so, i really like your shot and i hope you don't mind me saying what i honestly feel about it.

Bravo and TFS
Horia

Hello Krzysztof,
Lovely picture of the Orange Tip posed on this fine white flower. I like a lot the mood of this picture, some kind of dark environment with this fine plant and the elegant butterfly. Well seen and done
Kind regards
Anne

Hi Krzysztof,

Excellent macro shot of this orange tip my friend. Splendiid sharpness, focusing, lighting, details and DOF- spot on. The dark BG gives a wonderful contrast and a lovely look overall. Well Done! This goes to my favourites. TFS.

Pearl.
