Hi Anne again,

I, a guy who often searched the unusual in my life, don't really believe my eyes: this superb pic was posted 4 hours ago and still hasn't received any comments at all. What happened to the community: everyone's doing their day job (I also just came home, but have to go to our association within minutes) or is this pic so strange?

For me a composition like this isn't strange at all, I also like to experience with such small main theme on the image (for example here), so I absolutely like this shot. Great idea and realisation, a bit pity the left wing became slightly oof, but the background blur is wonderful, and makes an interesting kind of contrast against the insect.

Really individual and unusual shot, huge congratulations. Best regards from Your Hungarian friend, László

Ciao Anne,
composizione molto bella con una messa a fuoco selettiva perfetta, i colori sono molto belli e luminosi e la definizione è ottima, secondo me in quello che è l'impatto visivo immediato il soggetto principale (P. icarus) ha poco peso nell'attirare l'attenzione in quanto la parte azzurra non prevale su quella meno luminosa grigia ed anche altri punti attirano l'attenzione e cioè i fiori gialli e bianchi, per gustare questa immagine ci si deve soffermare senza fretta e così si può entrare a far parte di questa bellissima atmosfera.
Grazie e complimenti
Buona serata
Con amicizia
Maurizio

Hi
This Common Blue looks wonderful on this shot.
It is a very interesting shot due to the angle and the position of the butterfly.
Superb colors and details.

ciao Anne!
questa cattura tra le erbe e i fiori di campo e' davvero bella,la piccola lycaenide blue ti ha costretto a una presa a terra e con un fuoco selettivo hai mostrato in modo perfetto la icarus e come "pennellato" il suo ambiente naturale............

Bonsoir Anne.

Magnifique photographie dont les qualités techniques excellentes, alliées à une mise ne page audacieuse -:) vous permettent de nous offrir un cliché plein de vie et de naturel. Grâce à votre cliché, nous sommes transportés au milieu de cette prairie, juste à côté du papillon.

Merci et bravo.

A bientôt.

Philippe.
