[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
What I liked about this shot was the diagonal line the leaves and the butterfly make. The wings backlit caught my eye too. I'm posting quickly and then I'm off and running today! With 3 weeks of 100F+ temps we are insane at work. Gotta make Hay while the sun is shining!

Hi Linda

A good profiled shot of the butterfly, with nice bokeh, & superb use of a shallow dof. Wonderful color & sharpness. Tfs!

Ciao Linda, neighbour as usual, superb macro of elegant butterfly, beautiful diagonal composition, fine details, splendid colors and wonderful sharpness, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hi Linda,
A very sharp macro of this butterfly with an ample DOF!
Fabulous lighting adorning your marvelous composition.
Yes, I like the diagonal positioning of the leaf carrying the butterfly.
At first I was annoyed with the burnt edge leaf on the right, but looking to the capture for quite a resonable time, I concluded that it is balancing the perspective.
A clean presentation.
Well done,

Francis Xavier

Hello Linda!

Hi Linda,
Impressive macro. I was trying to take shots of a butterfly the other day, but I think I'll delete them all after seeing this one, haha. Perfect focus and clarity, hope I'm as good at these shots one day. Great subtle lighting here too.

TFS,
Scott.
