Hello Ulla

If it was not because of the different antennas I would say you had copied in a mirror of this Common Blue:-).

Very nice picture of this little beauty. Very nice and natural colours, great sharpness with fine details in the bf, excellent dof to set off the bf, clever handling of the light and of course here the centered composition works perfect.

Nice work

Hello Ulla, beautiful image ! Lighting, composition and sharpness are perfect. Just to do some nitpicking i'd clone out the white area in upper left (whatever it is) to get a plain background.

This is a very sweet capture Ulla well timed, exposed, and detailed. This centered composition works well and they are beautiful insects. Thanks,

Hello Ulla,
From the thumbnail I was pretty sure you'd been playing in Photoshop!
Then I realize this is the real thing, very well done... The lack of symmetry is minimal and not worth mentioning...
Besides, it is a great image with only one butterfly too!

Hi Ulla,
That is really special. They really do mirror eachother perfectly. After a closer look I do see the differences in the spots on their wings. A really wonderful moment with great details and colors.

Bonjour Ulla,
La compostion parfaitement symétrique de cette image est extraordinaire. Grace à un point de vue parfaitement choisi, tu as obtenue la netteté sur l'ensemble des ailes et des antennes des deux papillons. C'est parfait et superbe.

Do you know what, Ulla?
This picture reminds me of a well-crafted royal emblem of a princely state from some erstwhile kingdom in Rajasthan, India :-)!

You have done well to place the subject at the exact centre of the frame; it wouldn't look that good anywhere else.

A fantastic capture of these two Common Blues occupying a flower in perfect formation.
Great POV, sharp focus and brilliant colours.
Thanks for sharing this real beauty.
Regards.

The morror effect here is amazing and i can understand mogens's point with the antennae :))
The composition here is stunning thanks to the 2, the POV is excellent and the details everywhere are magnificent. It's really terrific that you managed to place both of them and the flower in such great focus.

Bonjour Ulla,
Wooow ! What a mirror ;-) Incredible, you were so lucky to find the 2 males symetricaly on the same flower. You managed well and the result is nice. The butterfly are loevly but the flower also. Good sharpness, DOF and exposure. Natural colors. Centered composition works well here. Useful note too.

Hello Ulla!
I do not know why I overlooked this beauty picture before...
Composition is simple great and the DOF fantastic! BG, profile POV and colours are also very good (maybe except the light part of flower which is a little to light as for me).
Very good work!
