buena fotografía de la mariposa. Las flores son un pedacito excedente expuesto. Pero parece hermoso.

Saludos, Petru

Beautiful shot. Great colours and DOF. But the plant on the left distracts me a little. But still a great photo

Excellent detail, exposure and sharpness on the butterfly but the overexposed flower is a little distracting.

Beautiful shot with good color and POV Ricardo. Very good sharpness & DOF. Excellent note also..Just a bit OE on the flowers.
Well done.

Belle présentation,les couleurs sont parfaites et la netteté excellente.

Merci pour cette belle composition.

Joseph.

Nice colors & details in the butterfly with nice POV, only nit is that the white flowers are washed out causing a distraction, still a great shot. :)

Hi Ricardo,
that's one of the most beautiful butterflies I know - I also had the chance to see one this year - it was very amazing for me.
Yours is perfect, I love your POV from the side. The flower is a little OE, but anyway it's a perfect shot, thanks

Hi Ricardo

Great post and great note. Very good composition, I like the fact that the colour in the wings form the centre on the photo. Well captured.

Reinier

P.S. Best wishes for 2006 and hopefully many fine shots.

Hola Ricardo, esta es una bellísima foto de esta especie de mariposa, me gustan mucho los colores y detalles inferiores de las alas que has logrado. Muy buen acercamiento. Lo único que me parece negativo en la foto es que las flores están sobreexpuestas, pero comprendo que a veces eso es inevitable según la situación.
Saludos
Hernán

Hola Ricardo, Qué buen fotoinicio de año has tenido al captar estas mariposas tan bonitas y de gran colorido, me gusta la perspectiva y los detalles muy bien captados en sus alas y en su ojo, los detalles de la vegetación y su respectiva iluminación hacen un fondo muy bueno y le añaden profundidad a la mariposa. Tus notas como siempre: muy completas. Saludos Cordiales. *Ninfa Urania*
