The colours on the beautiful insect and flower are out of this world. Excellent DOF and overall quality. Your informative note, for me, is of a good lenght and not too long, and I always appreciate it that you give a brief explanation of how the image was captured. Thank you and best wishes.

Hello Ivan,
It is a rare species in my country too. I have never seen this interesting spotted moth.
The six spotted moth is more popular in Romania.
The details, colors contrast and focus are exceptional as usual.

Hello Ivan,
I think that the beauty this species is very hard show. When you look at this species in nature are visible more tints on its wings. Yours is taken very well, good sharpness and pattern on wings is visible very well.

Dear Ivan,
cheerfully bright and sunny, colourful and clear presentation of Zygaena minos.
Grateful to read your notes about the properties to distinguish this species from very similar Z. purpuralis. They are making me review some of the documentation pictures stored under "Z. purpuralis" in my archives.
With thanks, and all my best wishes to you,
Peter

P.S.:
Thank you for your visit and kind words to my latest posting. Wishing you all the best for all those things to do when moving to another place. Looking forward to seeing and hearing from you again!

Hello Ivan,
Thanks for showing us this Rare Swedish Burnet Moth. I have always seen the red and grey version but this transparency of the wings is an amazing creature. I like the details and well exposed details on that beautiful flower. Nice and bright image against the silenced smooth background.
Well done and best regards,
Jusni
