Hi Ali
Nice capture of this little white. The butterfly (and flower) were well complimented and contrasted by the dark green BG.
Your composition is quite fine, the colours are great, the butterfly is well defined in sharpness, and the exposure was well managed.
Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Beautiful shot, with excellent details, colors, composition, POV and DOF. The bright flowers and butterfly come out very nicely on the darker BG, I like it, well done !

Hello Ali,
A nice shot of this small white and beautiful flowers. Great exposure, lovely detail and colours and good DOF, I like the different levels of focus on the leaves in the background, it adds a lot of depth. Great shot and note.

Merhaba Ali Riza,
I was looking at another mannequin shot in your TE portfolio and I spotted the fact that you had a TN account. This is wonderful work. The detail is awesome the color contrast between the bright, gaudy flower and the sophisticated subtle colors of the Moth/butterfly?

I see you're not posting here recently, this IS a tough audience here. HLJ, Pat
