Two different kinds of insects in one shot and both of them are very sharp with great colors. Fine POV and a nice quiet background.
Well done,

What an amazing scene. You managed to catch two charming beauties of a very nice flower. DOF and details of all pictured subjects are stunning. I also am impressed with beautifulness of the colours and smoothness of the BG. POV and composition are superb too. Well done and TFS.

Hello Fikret
it is truly a beautiful image of nature with very rich colouration: contrast of butterfly particular is excellent.
Good pose of the Copper on the flower with great sharpness and good details on a very soft background for an optimal depth

Hi Fikret,

A beautiful trio - the butterfly, the insect and the flower. Any two in one picture would be wonderful, but all three in one frame is spectacular. Each is superb with beautiful colors and sharp details. Excellent background and a marvelous diagonal composition.

hello Fikret,
Great to have two special insects on the same flower. Melanargia larissa is quite different from the species we have in Europe. You show it with perfect sharpness, good framing and a beautiful background. Bravo again

Hello Fikret !
Wow, this is an amazing picture ! So pin sharp, we can see every little detail on the butterfly, and Ilove the texture of the wings, they look sooooo soft ! Composition and POV are beautiful too, as well as the natural coors and the blurred BG, and the pose of the butterfy. Really a wonderful picture !
Valerie.
