[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The photo had been taken in Kızılcahamam Woods at 1650 meters.Opposite of many European countries you can see lots of Aporia crataegi's in Turkey and before I read some information about this butterfly,I was thinking that this's a really common one like Vanessa atalanta.

The weather was cloudy when I took this shot and Olympus D545 used to take this photo from 25 cm.

A small note:"When you look at the picture please write some critiques because I am putting in work too much.I like Treknature but,when you put a photo nobody can see it after one day in the first page."

3:3;-)good capture. I prefer "non-center" framing, so ;-)...You should change composition;-), in my opinion of course.

And their Danish name is "Sortåret hvidvinge" ;-))
Beautiful capture with very good DOF, good sharpness and colours, the whites are nicely handled. I think I'd be tempted to crop some off either right or left side to move the butterflies out of the centre of the photo.

I like the composition of the main object, however the BG is a bit messy :-)

A stunning composition, Emin. There is a very pleasing balance to the photo, with your butterflies and flowers arrangement. The details are sharp and the colors are beautiful. Well done, and TFS. : )

Stunning capture Emin, catching 3 butterflies on the one flower. The details are excellent, you have good exposure and they are all nice and sharp against the blurred BG.
You must be pleased with this photo. Very well done.

Two is a company, three is a crowd? :)
Nice shot, I like the lines (veins) in the wings!

This is beautiful, you had a lot of luck - 3 butterflies together on this beautiful flower.
The colours are nice, perfect compositon.
Thanks

Excellent shot Emin, look like a fashion show, :) all waiting to performe. Very nice composition, good catch with all three in the same time. Good contrast, DOF, details and lighting. Very well captured. Thanks for sharing. :)

Details are perfect!Very nice composition! Congrats

Hello Emin

What a lovely composition. You have managed the exposure of the white of the b'flies extremely well. The dark veins in the wing are clearly visible and the light was in your favour. A very pleasant image to view with an excellent array of colours. Well done. Thanks.

Your are lucky : 3 butterflies ! Composition, colors, details and sharpness are very good ! Thanks for sharing Emin.

Hello Emin, I'm lucky to get one butterfly, let alone three. You really exposed this well. I like the color contrast between the flowers and the butterflies. A couple of things are distracting in the BG so I did a workshop on it. Please let me know what you think of it.

Emin, now, this is a marvellous shot of a whole family... you have captured them all, together with the beautiful flower, with sharpness and a good sense of design. Excellent photo.

Hi Emin,

Hello again Emin,
Very nice image indeed. Very good details and colours even to the poor light conditions. You have a very good depth of field here and a nice composition. The background is a bit crowded but not a major problem to enjoy this beautiful scene.
Well done.

Hi Emin.. great capture! The details on the wings is very well. The contrast of the black and white is well defined. I agree with others that the BG is a bit fuzzy. Maybe more of a blur? Well done. :-)

Hi Emin, I have no time to write a decent comment. I give to you the well deserved smily.

Weekend thought:
The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical.
It is the sower of all true science.
He to whom this emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead.
To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists,
manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty
which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms,
this knowledge, this feeling, is at the centre of true religiousness.
- Albert Einstein -

Thank you for sharing pictures and notes and for the enjoyment which they give to me.

Quelle netteté et pureté de l'image, tout y est,que dire de plus, continuez!!!

What a butterfly's ahow!
A lucky you are!

A rare specie in Portugal.
Doesn't have a common name in portuguese too.

Butterflies are one among the most difficult subjects to photograph. But you are proving it otherwise given the quality of these shots. Simple wonderful. Very sharp, crystal clear excellent exposure. Keep them coming and TFS!

It is a delicate and beautifully colored photograph. It is dainty, and perefect. I think they must be sitting on some wild form of sweet williams.
