Really nice photo. I like the focus on the butterfly and that effect on the leaves. Great composition. You really captured its beauty.

What a beautiful butterfly with exquisite markings. I like the play of light and dark as well as the flowing leaf lines that ripple in the backdrop. The brightness of the light is a bit distracting and competes with the eye for focal point and the left span of wing is not as clear as the right. I'm almost left wishing you had been to your right just a bit to get a full fanning shot of his markings and colors, but I know how difficult it is to not disturb them from flying off. The rich orange velvet folds and detailing on the right is incredible.

I look forward to more of your nature scenes.

Thanks Charley i think i have over 500 more images of butterflies you can see more at www.photosbyphilipp.com if you have time

Comment from Stanbo
This is a beautiful picture and an excellent capture. My only comment would be that if you used a program like photoshop to blur the foreground a bit more and to sharpen the butterfly it would enhance the entire effect of the picture. Excellent job
