A very fine image which works very well with the back lighting. All the details are clear and the accompanying information is very detailed and interesting. Great camera technique and a pleasure to view.

In addition to the incredible detail of the butterflies, the background colors are just fantastic. The light on the wings, petals and background is also very attractive.

Having photographed butterflies a few hundred times myself, I appreciate the difficulty of achieving this composition. I see that you used some mixed media. I hope the butterflies were originally on the flower at the same time. Beautiful colors!

Wow. Absolutely beautiful with the light coming from behind and through the petals and wings@ Stunningly sharp focus, excellent exposure and color. I like that this is slightly tipped.
