Hello Mircea,
Cropping is a bit tight.
I'm feeling I'm too much busy being nit-picking...:-)
Well done overall

Hello Mircea,

A very nice butterfly. I see this butterfly some years ago in the mountains of Switzerland. They are so beautiful. Great capture. I'm agree with Annick. A little bit to much (-: Nice colours, a good BG and she is sharp. Regards and TFS Bob

Hello Mircea!

Excellent shot with marvellous colour and very good sharpness, POV and DOF! TFS.

Hi Mircea

Hello Mircea !
This is a wonderful picture ! Excellent details, beautiful colors and exposure, splendid blurred BG, and I also like the POV.beautiful pose of the butterfly, with the wings wide open. I would have left a bit more space at the top and at the bottom, it's a bit too tight at the tip of the wings, but it remains a wonderful picture. Very well done !
Valerie.

Hi Mircea,good colours and composition,well done
