    Hey Ovidiu,
    Super! Might go a bit more off the bottom....so curve toward stem was eliminated....but personal preference there......light, comp and BG are fantastic! 1/20 sec SS is slow.....impreseed at how well you do with those slow SS's.....even the slightest wind can cause movement!

    Ovidiu I have been out every morning looking for Polyommatus icarus to get a similar shot to this... but no luck.

    This is a superb image - well done!!

    Hi Ovidiu. Another outstanding image with excellent sharpness and DOF, light, and background. I'm going to differ with Roman and say I would prefer a little more room at the bottom so the bottom of the thistle bud doesn't look clipped. Very well done!

    Hi
    Nice BG and compo, maybe something more to the right, the back looks sharper than the front.
    The head is slightly away from you i think.

    Awesome image!! Everyting works well, but I'm with Steve...more at bottom to avoid clipping of the bud.

    Hi Ovidiu, the overall look of this one is fantastic! Everything certainly came together in this shot. I'm in the "more stem at the bottom" camp. If you don't have more on the bottom then I agree with Roman's crop suggestion. Overall this is well done!
