| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
I was taking pictures in my garden this morning as I saw some butterflies flying around. It was quite difficult to catch them in a shot, because this species flies around really fast and doesn't really stop that much on the flowers. I was using the supermacro feature of my camera, but was only ale to get a shot from afar, as when I tried to approach the butterfly had already moved away, so I had to crop the original shot and wasn't able to get a real macro. Maybe, I'll try later to see if my luck improves. I have no idea as regards as to the species, so info is welcome. As soon as I have it, I will improve the comment and the name of the shot.
I cropped the shot to be able to get closer to the butterfly, sharpened slightly, resized and added a frame.
Merry Christmas to everyone |

Hola Yvonne!
Cuantos insectos visitantes existen en los jardines que uno nunca antes reparó en ellos, no?
La foto que tomaste está bastante nítida y con muy buenos detalles.
Los colores y patrones de las alas de la mariposa son muy hermosos.
Creo que hay unas áreas algo sobre-expuestas, pero que cuando hay zonas de sol directo y sombras es muy difícil de controlar.
La composición resultante del recorte quedó muy bien equilibrada.
Buen trabajo por la foto, y te deseo unas Felices Navidades,
JM
