hello Andrei,
A butterfly not often shown on TN. Not very spectacular, but somehow mysterious. And this one is perched on a very fine and cute flower, may be a Prunella vulgaris, but I'm not a 100% sure. The picture is a little bit dark.
Kind regards
Anne

Hi,
Very beautiful butterfly, it would been more beautiful had you got that confusing background more diffused. tfs.

Ciao Iovescu. Great capture fot this beautiful butterfly. Right DOF and good sharp in amazing lightning.

Namaste,

Good picture, but with all those disturbance the butterfly somehow merges with the BG. You could have used flash to isolate the subject from the BG, I do it some times when the BG is far enough for the flash light to disperse :-)

TFS,

Ciao Andrei, beautiful Hipparchia with fine details and splendid sharpness, very well done, have a good week end, ciao Silvio

Hi Iovescu,
My apologies for reciprocating to your critique on one of my pictures rather late.
I've been a bit too busy elsewhere to do critiques in the past few days.
This picture of a beautiful Butterfly is technically excellent.
The butterfly is in good focus with lot of details on its wings.
Thanks and regards.
Ram

Hello

Lovely sharpness and detail.
The focus is spot on.
Well lit with terrific natural colour.
The wildflowers add a beautiful zip of colour to the composition.
Very good POV.
TFS
