Hey Monika, the world is upside down!! But of course, it is POLAND!! Super sharp capture of the butterfly, as ahe stands out so well against the blurred mad world behind him. And your world behind is very attractive with the buttercups and grasses, and that BLUE sky!!
Well done,
Janice

Hey! What is it going! If i'm in low tension or the sky and the earth are upside down! Very interesting chose. But I can say that i prefer normal frame :-) Focusing, sharpness, colours on the butterfly all are just perfect!The great details, colours and patterns on the wings! Thank you!

Hi Monika ! Strange picture, very unusual, but I like it. Was a great idea from you. Technically I would say this photo is perfect ; excellent details and colors, beautiful BG with flowers and blus sky, nicely blurred, wonderful composition and POV... Very well done !

Hello Monika,

I would personally prefer it the right way up! But I seem to be in a minority there :-)

It's a good detailed shot with nice light. Well done.

Hi Monika,
I don't know the intent of the experiment but if it is to make people dizzy it works :-) I find this very disorientating. I'll talk about it the right way up: Nice shot :-) nicely framed, good DOF, beautiful light and colours again. There is something a little odd about the contrast on the Butterfly, it looks quite strong against the background. A *very* minor nit though, probably just the light. Nice work and I'm looking forward to finding out what the experiment is :-)
Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Monika!
Ouch! I broke my neck! Is this frame from one of famous catastrophic Hollywood blockbusters :-) ? Real avant garde - but what you think about turning this picture 90 degrees clockwise?
Seriously - SkyBG [TM] as always looks great. Sun, yellow flowers, Rumex and last but not least butterfly. Great meadow picture. I like it. Story in note is missing :-)

Hello Monika,
I prefer the right way up version, as I can concentrate better on the beautiful details of the butterfly.
Technically a excellent shot!

Hi Monika, I like it, it makes me feel that I am lying down in the meadow to look at this butterly but I think I still prefer the boring way. Had you considered a more diagonal angle when taking the shot, i.e. with the flower up right at 90 degrees but the ground at a slant, just a thought not sure if it would have worked though. Anyway everything else perfect, just going to get some physiotherapy on my neck now, I think a lot of TNers will be out of action after this one. Well done and TFS.

Hello Monika,
Good detail, colours and sharpness. exposure and lighting are good. I'm not keen on the image being the wrong way. I keep wanting to twist my head to see it the right way around.....sorry.

Thanks for posting, have a great week my friend.

Am I getting another bout of vertigo or is this a Thistle special on compo? Its a challenging image for me to critique Monika. Hmm I do like it, the colours, the clarity of image and butterflies POV view of their magical world. well done.

Bardzo ładnie - nie wiem tylko dlaczego muszę przekręcać głowę aby dopasować się do linii horyzontu ;-D
Tylko żartowałem - piękne jest.

Anyway, it a lovely picture with very good sharpness and colours, which I have enjoyed looking at.

Hi Monika,
It's definitely a different slant on things :)
Lovely color and use of ambient light. Great detail and DOF, with the BG the cats meow ;)
Very well done.

Hi Monika,
I have to cover the right half of the picture to fully appreciate otherwise I tend to turn my head 90 degree in orientation to the sky. Insects are more fortunate they seem to go about at 360 degree on flowers without any problem. Another excellent work. TFS.
