It's a long holiday in Indonesia, and as usual, I spent most of the time photo hunting . .
Not too difficult to get moment . .
I was walking around the house, and found this red flower . .
While capturing this flower, a butterfly stops by and seems to me, she wants to be photographed . .
I was lucky to get this moment . .

Hope you like it . .
No editing, just add frame and resize . .

Cheers,

excellent sharpness & clarity - exposing the detail texture of the hisbiscus' petal & the b-fly wing. a nice candid of the b-fly action too. a perfect shot. many congrats!

Hello Tjutjut,

Wonderful shot. Beautiful butterfly contrasting well with the red hibiscus. Excellent sharpness and details with very well managed depth against that blurry background. Please allow me to add this to my personal theme.

Hello Tjutjut,

You have made a fabulous job of capturing her even though, I think, she is trying to hide!

I like the way you have presented the flower off-centre, detailed and so beautifully coloured! The butterfly is the icing-on-the-cake, a super addition! I do like how the two images stand out clearly from the blurred b/g!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Wonderful work Tjutjut. The colours of the butterfly stand out nicely against the red of the hibiscus and the image is well composed. TFS,

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Tamar Tides IV’

Cheer my friend, your capture is the symbol of most perfect symbiosis between the various elements than nature with fact. Yes, you are lucky, but too an artist.
Because the beauty should be seen where it's, here is a marvellous example. All is joined together for that, of the colors sumptuous, the details and a freshness in the scene and especially that which makes the good click at the good time, you Tjutjut

Hi Tjutjut - I would love to see this image cropped in closer so we could see more of the butterfly and flower. It looks sharp enough for you to be able to do this.
Excellent shot of the butterfly - it looks like a chequered swallowtail, is it? I'd love to see them flying freely like this. We can only see them in our local Butterfly House.
Well captured

Very good focus and composition here.
Good narrow DoF and image quality - as usual :-)
Well done. Best regards, Daniel

You are so lucky Tjutjut to have a Hibiscus in your garden (we call it chinese tearose) and then have a butterfly stop and land on just that flower! I was looking at your beautiful Valentine, but this one is really eyecatching!

TFS this beauty.

Dikasih kritik sedikit yah Pak. Shoot bunga seperti ini agak susah. Karena merah itu gampang sekali untuk kehilangan detail. memang salah satu harus dikorbankan dan kelihatannya yang dipilih adalah detail pada kupu-kupu

:)

Hi Tjutjut,
Beautiful composition,nice hibiscus.

Ralf

Hello Tjutjut :o)

Hope everything is fine for you.
