This BF was taken yesterday. I like the pattern of this BF and the critter "down under".

Thanks for viewing.

Very nice BF, Monica, not alone on a nice flower.
You managed well the harsh light.

Ciao

The soothing backdrop sets the stage for this butterfly and flower. Nice job with the whites and detail. Very complete and enjoyable image (and a butterfly that I've never seen). :toast:

What a gorgeous looking butterfly and you captured it very well here in this image. Nice detail in the face of the butterfly along with the colorful perch. Well done.

Nice color palette and composition - critical sharpness looks a bit off though

Very nice butterfly and the BG is just fabulous. Yes, you get a bonus bug with this image.

Colors work well with BG, but the subject is too central for me :)

This really leaps off the background. Great detail.
