I have never seen this butterfly. He is so delicate looking. His powder blue body looks like a little fuzz ball. Wish there was a better view of him. The b/g works well as it accents the blocks
of color on the butterfly.
Nice detail of the wing.

Happy to see the close up view of this beautiful butterfly.The pale bluish white iridescent colour is very attractive.The bright background and the lemon yellow coloured flower and the plant look beautiful to view.

Very pretty picture with lovely soft complementing colors.. I particularly like the almost 3D effect you have created.
Well done with this image, I love the fuzzy blue centre of the butterfly.
Good luck in the contest.

Thanks so much. I agree, they almost don't look real. it kind of reminds me of a beanie baby.

This is an exceptionally well focused composition of this beautiful butterfly and the peppergrass. Your lighting and color are both phenomenal and the detail and texture is superb. Very nicely done.
