A good looking image posted here into the competition, together with interesting notes too! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of the pretty visitor and beautiful visited. Colours, textures and tones are good. Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done and good luck!

Thanks so much for your review. I truly appreciate it.

Comment from Charlotte Morse
This is a wonderful entry for the nature contest! Well seen and very well taken.
Your exposure is spot on, giving lovely bright and vibrant colours. The focus and dof are also perfect, as every part of the butterfly and flower are beautifully sharp, while the background is lovely and blurred.
I wish you all the very best for the contest.
Charlotte

You?re very welcome, it?s a lovely photo.

Comment from Glena Jessee-King
The background is blurred rather nicely. The oranges and touches of yellows of the beautiful Lilly add loveliness. The small butterfly is rather pretty with its stripes and yellows. Best wishes in the contest. Nice nature showing and informative narrative.

It is very beautiful. It captures the details which is amazing. I don't do photography myself but I love to look at photos and this definitely calms anger
