Hello Krzysztof
Very beautiful shot of butterfly,
excellent colors, welldone.

The grey wall as BG notwithstanding, it is a very sharp and clear picture of this grand butterfly, Krzysztof.
The low POV facilitated the capture of the insect's shadow, which endows the drab wall with some character.
Focus, colours, sharpness and details are truly magnificent in this shot.
Regards.

Hello Krzysztof,
I was too busy posting the notes of mine to notice yours close to. Excellent sharpness and comp and considering this shot taken in the middle of London, the BG is quite suitable!
Best wishes, Ivan

Bonito POV Krzysztof que genera una enorme sombra, con excelente agudeza y marcados colores.
A pesar de la intensa luz, los detalles que se perciben son muy buenos.
Me agrada el encuadre elegido, incluyendo no sólo a la silueta de la mariposa sino también la totalidad de su sombra.
Gracias y saludos... Ricardo

Nice POV Krzysztof that generates an enormous shade, with excellent sharpness and marked colors
In spite of the intense light, the details that are perceived are very good.
I like the elected framing, not only including the silhouette of the butterfly but also the entirety of its shade
Thank you and greetings... Ricardo

Hi Krzysztof

I know i'm more than a little beind with my critique...but i think it's better late than never.
I've likes this photo since the first day it was posted but i was gone and i didn't have any time recently to write anything. Now i finally have a bit of it, and i'm writting crittique after crittique, in hope to catch up :)

Anywya, the shot is really very beautiful. The POV and DOF are truly excellent, keepting all the subject in great lighting and focus.
The details are very nice and sharp (i especially like the head and antennas) and the colors are lovely.
Very well composed and taken.

Bravo and TFS
horia
