Macro Image of the Week Brendan Dozier for week ending 5/13/2011 Orange Julia

Congratulations Brendan Dozier for your image "Orange Julia-repost (Dryas iulia)" being chosen as the Macro Image of the Week for the week ending 5/13/2011!!!

Another from the butterfly exhibit - love the spotted eyes on these guys. ACR, PP, Topaz for detail, NR and some saturation boost. BG was distracting, so used combination of blurring and cloning, and converted it to B&W for more contrast and something different. Dodging and vignette to FG leaf.
