Impressive macro, Alan.
Great sharp details, superb Bg. The burn flowers are a bit disturbing me.

Excellent photo, thank you for sharing.

Face to face with butterfly, crazy eyes, wings as knives ;-) Wow, am I poet or something ;-) ? No, but I like POV. Very detailed shot, flower and insect are sharp and clear. Good work and never trust British Railways again Alan ;-)

Hi Alan, I reckon the ID is good. Did you enjoy the butterfly house? It's only 20 mins drive from me but I rarely go there, it's always so packed there and I find it hard to get motivated to get good shots with loads of people milling around. Still, they have some nice specimens there. It could do with being a little larger and the insect terrariums are pretty naff and very dark and dirty.

Anyway, nice shot. I think a little more DOF would have been nice but it's pretty dark in there sometimes. You picked a tough one on such a white blossom but it's good, with nice details and colours. Well done.

Alan, I love the composition on this shot. Super color, I agree that DOF is just a little shallow. Beautiful shot!

Hello Alan, It's a beautiful shot, very pleasing to the eye..It has great exposure, details and is very sharp where it counts..From this POV you probably would not get much of the wings anyway..Great job!

Alan, this London Butterfly House seems to be really great. It must be a pleasure to shoot in a place like this.

Here, great warm colors and pov. I like the bg too.

P.S.: I added your picture to a theme of mine.

Alan, these butterflies you posted are really nice. The details are sharp and the exposure spot on. The DOF is a tiny bit shallow and might I suggest you try this on ISO 200 and F8 or F10. This particular photo does have impact with the shallower DOF and its not a real problem. They are lovely.

Such a lovely image, so delicate. The light is fantastic.
My sister lives not far from (I take it) Syon Park. I heard it was closing?
