This is my first posting of a butterfly and is inspired by one of the pictures by Rob Fry (arfer). I am completely novice with the subject.
I hope you like it.

Hello Mario
As a completely novice to this kind of photography you've done a wonderful job.
Composition, sharpness and exposure are great.
Light, soft background color tones and details are wonderful.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards, Harry

For a first attempt it's pretty good Mario.
I'm sure Rob will be impressed.
Excellent angle and good placement in the frame.
Lovely colours.

Hi Mario,
you managed well for you first try,
the POV is unusual but nice and the composition is nice too.
Good exposure and lovely light.
Well done.

Very nicely done Mario. I wish all my firsts were this good. The composition is excellent with him hanging from the flower and you have excellent colour and detail. I especially like how the light is playing in this one. You have it hitting the flower and the butterflies face. Excellent.

Thanks, John

Hi Mario,

Fantastic first butterfly shot and I'm sure it wasn't beginner's luck. Rob will be proud of you. A beautiful swallowtail in a wonderful position showing off the lovely wing pattern. Beautiful colors, sharp details and a lovely composition,
