One little butterfly on a flowery meadow from last summer.

Thanks for looking.

Very delicate appearance. I like your choice of not going in tight on the butterfly and adding all the flowers. Very pretty. :smile:

D&L: We call these party crashers around here. I don't know whether I like the flowers or the butterfly more. Delightful image. >=))>

Beautiful work you all. A very fine image and as much summer mood as any image I recall seeing. I like it very much.

Lovely shot of the copper in a happy place. The BF and flowers are both pretty, and the background is just blurry enough to be familiar, yet not compete with the main subjects.

Thank you all for the passage and for the kind comments. We intend this as a picture of the meadow with one butterfly, and not of the butterfly in a meadow. That's why we chose not to go tight on the BF and to leave the BG visible.

Thanks again

D&L: I really like this image or repeating flowers and a butterfly to break the pattern. :toast:

Very pleasing image. The flowers among the blades of grass work well here.

Hi Daniele & vigo. :wavey: This is a beautiful composition. The B.G. flowers are perfectly crafted to blend with the butterfly. Excellent work.
