Hi Ricardo
There are probably hundreds if not thousands of butterflies which I've never seen before. I surely would have remembered if I've seen this one before, because of the unusual colours and pattern. Thanks for introducing me to it.
Your composition is fine, colours are very rich, DOF is good, BG is well OOF and apart for the bright areas at the top, quite neutral.
Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Wow Ricardo! cómo le hiciste en esta foto para darle ese efecto flotante?????
Esta preciosa... me gusta mucho la profundidad y tridimensionalidad captados en sus alas, la mariposa esta captada desde la antena hasta las patas con excelente nitidez, felicitaciones..no sé por qué..pero como que me recuerda a la hoja madura del árbol de almendras.... Saludos Cordiales. *Ninfa Urania*

Hola Ricardo,
Maravillosa mariposa, además los detales que has captado son fabulosos. Lo único que encuentro es la parte de arriba del fondo algo brillante, aunque no creo que tenga mucho derecho para decirlo. De todos modos el efecto logrado es muy bueno
Saludos cordiales
Hernán

ola Ricardo,
mais uma excelente borboleta!!! Ótima composição,luz e cores muito boas! Ótima foto amigo!!!

Hi Ricardo, great shot. I love those orange tones and the way it is balancing delicately on those leaves. Good detail and POV, TFS.
Dean.

Great shot, very vibrant coloured species.
I like the POV on this one.
Good sharpness and composition.

I love the slight softness of this image, Ricardo. The bokeh effect in the background works so well here. Nice quality of light, too!

What a great close up, Ricardo. Marvelous macro, beautiful butterfly. Good details, nice colors and framing. I like POV and composition too. Well done.

Hi Ricardo
You are so lucky to see these butterflies flying around the place. This one is so unusual, I like its fire colours. The glare in the BG is a bit annoying, but it is hard to hide it. Well done, good job, thank you
