I think Swallowtails are one of the loveliest butterflies around. I love the colors that border thier wings. Your image shows the butterfly off beautifully! From the hairs to the veins in the wing your DOF is wonderful. Love the hilight on the eyes and the small bit of texture revealed. THe lighing here does not glare and is perfect!

Though you did crop the wings I don't think it affects the beauty of the picture at all.

Good Luck in the Contest~
This IS a lovely shot!:o)

Comment from Jorge Gaete


I like it.
Nice colors and detail.
If I might in my opinion if the whole butterfly was in it would be much better. Also the ISO 400 is a little to grainy.
Good framing and detail.
Good luck with it.
Jorge.

This is spectacular! I admire you for aiming for the real story. Most photographers would forsake the beauty of the feeding body and such an exotic plant, just to get the wings.. You are very brave. I like that creative clever trait that it takes to do this. Excellent work.

The sharpness is awesome. You can see segmentation in the antennae, and feel the suede of her wings. The dark green blurred- out background works well with the swallowtails colors. I would have like to have seen the whole butterfly. The eyes of the wings are the most captivating parts. Very nice. Please post more swallowtails!

This is a great closeup og this butterfly. Colour & detail, both of the butterfly's wing & the flower head is perfect as is the composition. Good luck in the contest.

Excellent shot..The focus is good, clarity and attention to detail is excellent combined with the blur background. Good cropping and balance, and great use of natural lighting. Good luck in the contest!
