superb close-up-portrait, mike! :-)
excellent and sharp composition of the beautiful butterfly and
the pretty flowers, terrific tight crop with amazing details,
like the hair and the sucker standing in the air and really
wonderful warm colors.
well seen & captured, thorsten.

Hi Mike,
Very nice. An artful composition done very well. I think the limited DOF works perfectly here, producing an outstanding profile portrait.
Tack sharp with excellent detail, POV, warm colors, exposure, and BG.
Very well done.

Beautiful. I like the details here. I like the tight crop a lot, too, including just enough for the complete antennae. The light really brings out the hair/cillia.
Mike
P.S. Good to see you've moved to a new flower, too! ;-)

A superb closeup of the body and head, Mike -- an amazing capture and a composition that beats any I've seen so far. Your little one has character and personality! (Super frame you've created too -- it's a real portrait shot overall).

The border is very complimentary to the flowers and creates an overall dynamic macro portrait. :)

Mike, it looks as if you brushed this one for the shot. Super clean.
Excellent colours, details and composition.
I would have never imagined this frame in this shot, but I admit it fits well.
The DOF is really shallow, you made a good use of it.
Is some of the tongue out of DOF? looks like missing :)
Regards, Felipe.
