Hello Friends
This is a shot of Common Cerulean,beautiful
tiny butterfly,I like the shadows here,
Hope you like it
Here some info about
The Lycaenidae are the second-largest family of butterflies, with about 6000 species worldwide, whose members are also called gossamer-winged butterflies. There are nearly 6000 species and they constitute about 40% of the butterfly species.

The family is traditional divided into the subfamilies of the blues (Polyommatinae), the coppers (Lycaeninae), the hairstreaks (Theclinae) and the harvesters (Miletinae); others include the (Lipteninae, Liphyrinae, and Poritiinae) but these are taxonomy dependent. A few authorities include the family Riodinidae within the Lycaenidae. The sole member of the enigmatic subfamily Styginae is represented by Styx infernalis from the Peruvian Andes.

Adults are small, under 5 cm usually, and brightly coloured, sometimes with a metallic gloss. The male's forelegs are reduced in size and lack claws.

Bonjour,
Sympathique papillon qui semble jouer à cache-cache avec les feuillles.
Bonne journée.

Hello Fartash,
I like the backlight and overall comp or placement of the subject. Just a bit soft-focused, with the white spot BG and out of focus FG elements left corner distracting somewhat.
TFS.

Bonjour Fartash
bonne présentation , ce papillon est de toute beauté, jolies couleurs et bonne position
Bravo et au revoir...JP

The backlit point of view gives the wings of the butterfly a transparent look, Fartash.
Even the shadow of one of the wings falling on a leaf heightens that effect.
A good capture in totality.

Hola Fartash,
Bonita toma donde el color, la luz y el fondo son excelentes. Saludos

Love the point of focus. It makes the antena really stand out.

Hello Fartash,
I like the way sunlight pass through the wings of this butterfly. Nice green background and great composition. Focus on the wings is a bit soft here. TFS and regards,
JC
