5D3 + Sigma 180mm macro. My favorite butterfly and the flower is Carduus carduelis. Early morning sunlight heated the butterfly, it was the moment when butterfly moved the wings in up position and was ready to fly for the first time in the new day. Due to wind and time limit I did the shot by hand holding technique (AI servo mode), f/5.6, 1/800, ISO800, native light and perch. The frame size is 3462 x 5306 pixels. I didn't have time to increase DOF.
PP: NR of BG, tone adjustment.
Location: Velebit mountain, July 2015.
