wow! the hues in this image and background are spectacular. Great detail on BF..............love the curved leaf and presentation of the BF. I could wish for in-focus antenna, but doesn't take away. IMO you nailed it!

Another great butterfly/BG color combo, Ovidiu!
Those OOF antennae are an easy fix. Just select them and sharpen them. I used the quick mask to select and used smart sharpen to sharpen.

Hey Ken, thanks for repost! Better.;)

[Anita Bower]

Lovely shot of this butterfly. Great details, composition, light.

[Thomas Herou]

Very nice portrait!

[Roman Kurywczak]

Hey Ovidiu,
Outstanding! Ken's tweak shows just how powerful a small step can make! Very nicely done!!!

[Bob Miller]

Super image...love the colors in the bg and fg that really just make the reds in the bf pop

[Allen Sparks]

wonderful image...very nicely done and Ken's rework adds a nice tweak.

[Julie Kenward]

Outstanding, Ovidiu! This one is pure butterfly perfection! The lighting and exposure are spot on and the BG is perfect. The diagonal lines there really add to balance the roundness of the butterfly itself. Lovely work!

[Jonathan Ashton]

Beautiful shot, lovely complementary colours,

[Mike Fuhr]

This is one of those images that is so simple compositionally that combined with the excellent sharpness and background, makes it a wonderful shot of a beautiful subject!:)

Lovely image of the beautiful butterfly. Liked the way the BG has shades similar to that of the wings.
Neatly composed.
