The shape of this butterfly's wings is so interesting. Gert.
I like this capture very much with all its brilliant colors.
Fantastic POV and very sharp details.

Hi Gert,
very bright and clear image of "Robert le diable" as they call that pretty butterfly in France. A fresh specimen that shows its ragged contours and striking colours very well. The strong sunshine creates well saturated colours, strong contrasts and a lovely shadow. The well focussed surface structures of the leaf go very well together with the strctures and marking of wings, and the colour combination of juicy green and red brown is aesthetically very pleasing.
Thank you! Best regards,
Peter

Hi Gert !
This butterfly may be very common, it is still very beautiful ! I love the shape of its wings, and its warm color is very nice too. Excellent details and textures on the wings, wonderful composition and POV, and a nice contrast between green and orange. Very well done !
Valérie.

Hi Gert

Indeed a very beautiful butterflu! Interesting name - Comma...he look rather like a Napalm, judging after its wings :)

Excellent POV considering the posture of the wings, lovely natural colors, very good sharpness, great management of the strong light, well framed and composed.

Bravo and TFS

Bonita presentación por su colorido, el contraste de la mariposa sobre el verde de la hoja y un buen DOF y nitidez.
Adecuado encuadre y elección del recorte.
Bien hecho Gert... una vez más.
Saludos cordiales... Ricardo

Beautiful presentation for their coloring, the contrast of the butterfly above the green of the leaf and a good DOF and clarity.
Adapted frame and election of the cutting.
Well done Gert... once again.
Cordial greetings... Ricardo

Hello Gert,
Beautiful specimen. Excellent color (as usual) ;) light, DOF, sharpness, detail, POV, and framing..

Very well done.

I am jalous, this species "Robert le diable" is on my top list of buterflies to catch, but I can't see it :-( But because of you I can admire it on your great shot. Bravo Gert and TFS.
