    Very nice image Jonathan and very pretty butterflies. I like the composition and DOF, would increase contrast a little.

    That is just an embarrassment of riches, Jon! My goodness...to see this many at one time! I like this as much as the other image you put up and I liked that one alot! Sure, it would be nice if the bottom butterflies were a little more in focus but I agree - it's a great environmental/behavioral image.

    Wow! How cool is this! I like the pose and sharpness of the upper butterflies. The bottom pair have an almost identical pose which really enhances this. The only thing that draws my eye a little is the diagonal whitish line on the lower right. Wonderful image!

    Hey Jonathan,
    While this one may not get you the Oh wow!!!....of your earlier post.....it still has a lot of impact because of the reasons Jules mentions. I will confess the I do like your 1st pose of the lovely creatures better......but put this together with that 1st mating one......and it starts to tell the whole story........a very nice series!
