Hello Pankaj,
in spite of the dark grey background, the outlines of the genutia wings are perfectly seen. The low contrast between the wing margins and the background gives the picture a specific and artistic atmosphere and makes it very attractive. You selected an unusual and very nice point of view. Light, colour composition and geometric composition are perfect.
Best wishes, Peter

Yes it does look a bit like a Monarch and it also resembles a couple others..but you have the information right...You are the king of these fairies...and Sumon of Course who must be a very busy fella...Nice image..I am threatening to look for mine..but it is not of such high quality..and there are no new breeds called The Winter Snow Butterfly as far as I can tell:-)

Hi Pankaj,

A beautiful picture of this lovely butterfly which does resemble our Monarch. It shows up amazingly well against the dark background. Wonderful colors and excellent details showing off the lovely markings. A beautiful composition.

Hello Pajkan!
Nice pictre of interesting butterfly species, fine details and good POV. I like also contrast between BG and the species.
By the way, please note that na species name (second part of binominal name - here "genutia") should be written in smaller word. Only this kind is correct according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature :) But this is just a small correction :)
Have a nice evening and all the best in 2008!

Ciao Pankaj,
una foto molto bella, come tuo solito, di questa Danaus.
Apprezzo particolarmente lo sfondo scuro che mette bene in risalto la silhouette della farfalla.
Gradevole anche la composizione.
Grazie,

With all the rain we have been having lately I haven't had my camera out much either. I think you did great on this one. I love the sharpness and the simple composition against that lovely out of focus background.

Gran toma Pankaj. El buen fondo, encuadre y enfoque hacen que parezca que esta fotografía esté flotando, por lo que da una buena sensación de realismo. La luz también me gusta.

Hello Pankaj,
A technically superb image of a Striped Tiger taken from an unusual POV that shows almost every aspect of the butterfly well. The lighting is excellent thanks to the skillful use of flash and the composition is pleasing. In short, a great shot and thanks for sharing it!
I hope you will have more time with your camera soon.

I have yet to see a Striped Tiger with my own eyes, Pankaj.
Your image of it clearly shows how different it is from its cousin and our favourite Plain Tiger.
Wonderful composition with nice colours. The dark BG makes the leaf and the subject stand out sharply.
TFS.
