The detailed beauty of brown and green
Crispness of focusing and bokeh of green
Nice shot, TFS.
Hi Silvio,
The vegetation is framing well the insect. The point of view is showing the details of the Heteropterus morpheus butterfly. The light is enhancing the beauty of the colors. Have a nice day.
Pierre
Excellent shot, Silvio. The focus is exceptional.

Hello Silvio,
congratulations for capturing and presenting such a rare species of skippers, and bravissimo for capturing it even with wings open - and very clearly and precisely, too! Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter
