Wow, this is fantastic shot. So sharp & great colours. I like the background, perhaps just a little bit too much. However this is just my opinion. Well done

Hello Peter,
Creative idea to combine this fine macro shot with your home landscape as a dramatic background!
Butterfly and thistle are both star of the show!
Backlighting adds beauty, superb clarity in colors and all well done!

Hi Peter,
This a beautiful shot of the place you are coming from. There are not many places in the world where one still finds a rich biosphere of plants and animals. I can just imagine that the Alpine mountains are beautiful and that you must really love the place. I think you have used a very creative idea to show people the place. The butterfly and thrisle are both beautifully exposed and despite the fact that they are the main subjects in the picture your presentation leaves the imagination to run wild. Thanks for sharing.
Regards
Anton

Hi Peter,
This is a really romantic composition. I already can hear the "Alp-horn" and the "cowbells". The macro alone would have been simply excellent, and here, together with this beautiful landscape it's more than splendid ! Superb use of DOF the control every parametre.

Excellent control of this difficult light, you made a great use of it. Perfect DOF and beautiful scenary.
The butterfly looks really good, I would be temptated to post a bit closer, but the landscape looks so nice... maybe in another post. This is great like this!

The back-lit butterfly and flower are stunning.
Absolutely gorgeous light and colors.
Fantastically sharp details and excellent POV.
Composition is wonderful, with the mountains in the BG.
You managed to showcase the subjects clearly in a good size, yet you managed to include so much BG that is informative regarding the plight of wildlife in our industrialized societies, juxtaposing the wild mountains and the plowed fields below.
Great job and TFS. : )

Hi Peter, Perhaps one of the best butterflies on TN. The mountainous backdrop beyond those transluscent wings is a pleasure forthe eyes. The thistle colour is a bonus. Well portrayed. Murray.

Hi Peter,
This shot is all about the composition. It is amazing! I think this a very creative shot. You handled the difficult exposure range very well. Beautiful colors and sharp detail in the butterfly. The OOF backround scenery looks great. 10 points for creativity!

Hi Peter.
It's really outstanding photo. I've no doubts. Superb idea and composition. Excellent macro? Yes. Beautiful Landscape? Yes. Charming flower? Yes. Inimitable in its beauty butterfly? Yes. Amazing BG. Light is incomparable. Colours are perfect, etc, etc. Bravo-o-o-o! TFS. My compliments.

Hi Peter, lovely shot. I just spent an hour outside trying to shoot b-flies in the Texas heat..Nothing as breathtaking in the BG I'm afraid..I'm not certain, but I believe a point & shoot is better at pulling in more BG like this, than a DSLR..
Excellent. The overall impact is awesome :)

Hallo Peter,
stolpere gerade noch über Deinen Baumweissling.
Frage mich nur, was mir besser gefällt. Da, der so wunderbar mit Deiner Kamera eingefangene Falter, oder im Hintergrund, das verschwommene Panorama des Oetztales. Ich meine, nein bin mir da ganz sicher: hier ist Dir ein Foto gelungen, das sich aus dem üblichen Rahmen von Naturfotos wirklich angenehm heraushebt. Eine tolle Werbung für das Nord-Tirol. (muß ich mit Neid anerkennen - hätte auch gut zu mir gepasst...leider habe ich hier nur Hügelchen als Backround) Den Falter hast Du aber auch sehr gut erwischt. Schärfe, Farbe, Details - alles perfekt!
Gruß aus dem heißen Ostwestfalen (der schwärzesten Gegend Deutschlands..grins..)

hi peter, wie ich sehe, hattest du ein paar wunderschöne
tage im ötztal (liegt da nicht auch vent? da war ich vor jahren mal).
und dann erfreust du uns mit diesem herrlichen meisterwerk! :-)
da ist alles perfekt - schärfe, farbe, licht, komposition und der hintergrund mit den verschwommenen bergen - spitze!
da bin ich ja mal gespannt, was du uns noch so von dort präsentieren wirst.
danke & viele grüße, thorsten.

Una muy bella composición realmente.
El fondo de montañas, el efecto de la luz y una adecuada elección del POV, convierten a esta imagen en poesía.
Gran trabajo Peter.
A very beautiful composition really.
The mountain bottom, the effect of the light and a suitable election of the POV, convert this image to poetry.
Great job Peter.

Hello Peter,
This is another masterpiece from you. The composition is outstanding. You created a great perspective by overlaping the subject with the mountains in the background. But the most impressive thing about this picture is the way you handled the light. The backlight and the translucence of the wings of the butterfly create such a beautiful effect which is enhanced by the sun rays that shine through the clouds above the background mountains. You exposed this situation with great skills so that we can admire the great details even if in shade. You only let us figure out and dream about the landscape in the background. Thank you for showing us this beauty! Excellent job!
With Friendly Regards,
Eddie

Hello Peter,
I've taken a look at your work. What a fantastic butterfly collection. This one is so good! The colours are amazing. The DOF with the purple thistle and yellowish butterfly in front and the Oetztal in the BG is just perfect.

Wow! Nice shot! I like the colours and the light.
I am planning to buy a new camera and I am into macro shots. Sony DSC-H5 seems to have performed a good job. Do you advise this machine?
