    The image is taken almost against the sun. The +2 correction and slow speed adds to the paint effect of the BG as well as the colors. Suggestions appreciated.

    Beautiful specimen! I like the overall pastel feel but the image seems slightly overexposed on my screen(?)

    I like the blurred wings and pastel colors although I would make it a bit darker, especially the BG.

    I like it as is. It has a soft feel that is very pleasing. I'd have to see a darker version to tell if it would be an improvement.

    Nice flight shot, I agree to see a darker version!

    hm, I've done a hardware calibration on my monitor with a tool that afterwards constantly monitor the intensity of light in the room and the image looks well here. May anyone to postprocess the image according its monitor settings to see the difference?
