[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
After recently adapting an old 500 Screw fit mirror f8 lens to fit my Nikon with the aid of a broken Tamron nikon fit lens and some masking tape,I was lucky enough to come across this Brimstone feeding on the Runner bean row in the garden,I had the use of a tripod so I was able to get a shot without too much shake.I would appreciate any feedback..

Hello Les,
The composition is good, with nice colours. But the brimstone is still blurred... Maybe because you do not apply some sharpnening after size reduction? I made a WS with your photo to try to correct it... but unable to post it. Maybe you did not allow it. What I did: sharpnening with photoshop, then selection of the background and flower and bluring it. Best wishes,
Catherine
