Hi greg !
Congratulation for your 500th photo ! It's a fantastic shot that you show us today. Everything is excellent here : sharpness, details, colors, POV, composition... The pose of the butterflies is very beautiful, and the dandelion they are sitting on is great - looks as hairy as the butteflies :-)) Wonderfful BG too. Very well done!
Valérie.

Hi Greg,
I thought I had better drop in long enough to help my old associate celebrate :)
I have always appreciated your enthusiasm for photography. It has been an inspiration and constant reminder to me that "picture taking" should be fun. This is an excellent capture, and is a great example of how your skills as a photographer have grown..
Very well done mf.

Congratulations on 500th post.

Excellent shot. the weather was the same here yesterday as well and the place was full of butterflies and other insects not quite so friendly. The sharpness is excellent and colours are great.

Hello Greg!
Really wonderful shot with that blue cloudy sky my friend! Green parts also perfect! I like it a lot! It seems that you're impressed from Monica style! But these one is better I think! Hope that Monika does not read this critique ;-) btw, great notes as usual for u! Congrats!

Grzegorz,
marvellous picture of that lovely pair of Polyommatus icarus on these shining fresh parachutes of dandelion. Excellent details, exciting colours, and an outstandingly powerful and dynamic composition. Very attractive and refreshing setting that can be made out very well with the green hill and the clouded blue sky above. Very inspiring image!
Excellent contribution for this very special event - congatulations, and all the best to you!
With thanks, and best regards,
Peter

Hi Greg
What a sharp posting to celebrate #500 with. Nature congratulated you in a very special way with these two butterflies. It was not just by hap-n-chance, but it was so determined since you did not take without giving, and you when you gave it were with an unselfish magnanimous heart. We, your family and friends here at TN, also want to congratulate you. Very well done and may you still continue to do so for many years. Just remember, after 500 comes 1 000, but that should not be a big problem. At least you are halfway there which is much more than what I can say.
Great work on all counts Greg. It is a superb photo in every respect. TFS.
Friendly regards

Beautiful sky and some matching blues in the butterflies. Very sharp details in the wings without seeming oversharpened. Very worthy milestone post.
