Hello Milos,
really well-composed. Focus and sharpness are perfect in spite of obvious wing movement (seen at the wing-tips).
Best wishes, Peter

Hi Milos,
Splendid shot of this beautiful Swallowtail with fabulous colours and sharp details. The pinbk flowers add lovely colours and set against the green BG it looks majestic. Superb lighting and the focus is spot-on on its eyes. Excellent POv to portray it and very nicely composed. Kudos.

bonjour milos
caracteristique de ce machaon qui n'arrete pas de bouger et battre des ailes,celle de gauche est legerement flou et donne l'effet de mouvement,pour le reste c'est encore une fois tres reussi.

Pěkný úlovek, Miloši. Vím, že fotit otakárky není vždy jednoduché - většinou nechtějí moc pózovat. Moc se mi líbí kompozice a parádní barvičky. Letos jsem si ještě žádného nevyfotil, doufám, že se mi to ještě podaří.

What a great present for Hilary this is Milos.
Another of your really masterful butterfly images and this time on this wonderful flower.
Just love the little bit of movement in the wings wich bring some action in to the scene.
Like always in your images sharpness, lighting and composition are perfect and colors are amazingly saturated and beautiful.
Awsome work. My compliments.
Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes,
Harry

P/S Out of :) will be back tomorrow.

Hello Milos,
These are difficult subjects, always moving. That said, you have conveyed a great sense of movement with the outer wing edge blur..Excellent sharpness, detail, exposure, POV, comp, and lovely colors.
Very good BG too :)
Excellent work!

Hello Milos,
I love your note! I am happy that your new plant brought to you such a beautiful butterfly. It will be back often and you will get another chance. Many of the swallowtails are constantly fluttering their wings when then nectar. I hear it is to maintain their balance.
The focus on the parts that were not moving is exceptional. Very sharp and great detail. It is a very nice composition.
Best Regards,
Ken

Hi Milos,

I was browsing amongst the achives when I found this lovely shot of the beautiful Swallowtail. I must have been taking some time off when you posted it so I missed the lovely dedication you gave to me.
Its a lovely composition with a great POV and a very nice pose of the Butterfly feeding on the buddleia.
Superb details and beautiful colours and light.
I see you haven't posted for a while but hopefully you are still popping in for a look now and then.
Thanks again for the lovely dedication and hopefully you will start posting once again.

Best Wishes
Hil :o)
