Hello Gert,
A magnificent shot, I love the butterfly design and wing patterns. I've surprised by the very good focal depth, all has excellent dfocus. Colours, illumination, composition, all well. You're lucky to take this one between showers, the sun gift a nice light.
Cheers

Hej Gert,
Fine capture of a male Heath Fritillary taken from a great POV showing how the wings can curve down when open. Excellent sharpness, DOF and BG in this pleasing composition on a red clover flower.

Regnet had både spolat bort de gamla och fått fram fräscha fjärilar. När solen kom fram var det 28 grader och det vimlade av främst guldvingar idag.

Imaculate specimen for a imaculate photography.
A joy to look at, really.
Congratulations MF, always a pleasure to look at your work.
Best regards, Felipe.
PD: The distance to the subjetc made it this time, really perfect.

Hi Gert,
I see the butterflies are now in Sweden - you show us so beautiful ones, this kind is very pretty and a nice arrangement on the clover with the blurred green BG.
Thanks and greetings

Hej Gert,
I wonder if this Fritillary is as common up with you as it is here. Togther with the Greyling they seem to fly in all weathers!!
Very nicely captured on the clover in nice light. I like the POV and the quality is excellent as usual.
Many thanks and cheers, Ulla

Helo Gert !
Six month ago I didn't know these butterflies were living in my region, but then one day I discovered them and since this day they belong to my favourite species - I love their color and they are always cooperative models. The details on this picture are excellent, as well as the composition, the natural colors and the blurred BG, which makes your buterfly stand out very nicely. Well done !
Valerie.
