Its always a bonus to find pair on the same perch and on the same plane!!

Beautiful image of this pair John, I love the water droplets. I do not know how colourful these butterflies are in reality, but maybe some selcetive saturation on the wings will make it pop a bit more?

Now that is just flat out cool! I really like the symmetry portrayed in this image. Very well done.

The pose and the lighting are great. Agree with Vincent on the selective adjustment, it would enhance the image a bit.

Hi John,
I softened the perch and background a little bit and selected the insects, and added some black to the neutrals in Selective color, to make them pop as suggested above.

Beautiful. I can't think of anything else to add that hasn't already been said/done.

This is one sweet shot, what Fabs did was very subtle but makes the image stronger.
