Hi Chris,

Superb shot, I like your composition and POV, the detail is lovely and sharp and the colours are lovely and vivid, the black BG really compliments the Butterflys bright colours.

Hi Chris

A very beautiful monarch you have here!
Great POV and colors, nice DOF and BG. Too bad the head is not in full focus...it would have really been a superb shot!
Even so, the composition is a very nice one :)

Bravo and TFS

Wonderful composition against the black background, really makes the colors pop! I just wish it was a touch sharper.

Hi Chris,
Writing this note from my new home in Dallas, Texas :-) Nice shot, beautiful detail in the wing and I like the colours a lot, really striking against the dark background. Perfect exposure, just a slight loss of detail on the head and body, but I always find I look straight to the wings which you've captured perfectly.
Regards,
Adrian
