Super focus, showing the fine lines vividly and its textures and various colors. Well, I admit, I did realized at first, I was looking at the brown caterpillar. Amazing camouflagued. Well captured.

OMG! Another wrong mistake. I was concentrating at the top, I didn't realized , that is the wing. LOL! Really a good disguise.

Comment from Mara del Mar
Great sharpness and harmony of the color, nice light, clarity, and texture. Great camera settings, and sharp focus. I love the details, and nice frame. Honestly, without your notes, never I had seen the legs or the eyes of this rare butterfly. Well done.
Mara.

Comment from DavidP
I always read the notes and its a good thing or I would swear this was a leaf. I do see a couple of legs under the edge of the leaf. This is amazing! I've never seen a butterfly that looks so much like a dead leaf. Nature is amazing! Best camouflage job I've ever seen as well. Would be hard to spot this butterfly unless it was moving. Thanks so much for sharing this neat view of a "dead leaf" ha

thanks a lot again David; the responsible of the butterfly farm told me thereare more around, on trees, but impossible to spot them!
there are already 2 comments who obviously missed the notes;

Comment from JIRINA
I must admit I peak at your notes. Still an amazing butterfly, great colours in the photograph. I looked up the butterfly species, and found other species, some with beautiful colours when the wings opened. Is this one of them?

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel
This is a 6* capture frost of all as your shot is perfect, second of the content to teach again something about nature most of people even would not perceive , the transport of such a huge leaf in teamwork taken away for food or nest building, the way they have chosen is stunning as they will certainly have to think what they do getting to the edge, but they always succeed giving us an example not giving up - a wow shot , fantastic capture, super close up , very harmonious in color rang, stunning content , perfect I camera setting, focus and exposure are perfect a well as contrast and lighting

a super balance picture, well seen, thanks for sharing
