Beautiful image. The lighting and warm tones are lovely. A lovely bokeh to go with...

Good photo of this little butterfly. Are those dew drops on its wing? Nice light. I don't love the circular shape in the center of the frame.

Nice capture of this blue BF. Like the color, details, pose, perch and bg.

Beautiful detail and lighting -- especially the touch of side light. Composition is artistic, too. I am glad you did not crowd it by more cropping.
