    Magic! The butterfly is absolutely wonderful, excellent focus and exposure optimal DOF, the composition is very attractive and the overall colour palette is beautiful - I just love this image well done.

    Hi Miroslav. This is a beauty! Excellent pose, sharpness, comp, and background plus very nice detail in the whites. For me, the rather dark shadows on the stems are a bit distracting and make the light seem harsh - you might consider trying to open those up a little more. Overall, this is a very strong image!
