A beautiful capture of this lovely monarch butterfly! I love the well defined colors and sharp view of his details. Nicely composed and framed. The green background and bright thistle flower give wonderful highlight to this butterfly's beauty! Best wishes for the contest!

This close up is extraordinary. Your photo is perfect focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. I enjoy the sharpness of detail and textures and the realism of light and color. The shallow background emphasizes the Monarch and the thistle remarkably. It is impressive how the butterfly clings to the thistle flower. The mixed media is perfect composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

What a lovely capture of a beautiful monarch. A thistle has such a pretty color and the monarch has to be one of the best looking butterflies! So many varieties but there's something special about the monarch. You done good.
Lovely color and balance-
Centered and clear
Thank you for sharing.
Good luck in the contest!

Lee Ann,
A beautiful picture of the Monarch butterfly sucking nectar from the Scot's Thistle. It's beautifully patterned wings & the Thistle both standing out in sharp contrast to the grey green background. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

A beautiful shot that should do very well in this contest. The thistle contrasts very well with the colors of the monarch and the composition is great. Best of luck in the voting.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of both the butterfly and thistle. Colours and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Great shot here! Amazing clarity, I love the details you captured. Its very well focused, and the background off sets the bright orange colours so nicely. The triangular composition is pleasing to the eye
