Canon EOS REBEL T2i
EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS
10/15/2011 – 1:42:13 PM indoors
1/250 sec
Manual
f/5.6
ISO 400
Focal length 250 mm
Butterfly Rainforest, University of Florida
Raw, LR3, CS5

I like the way the green butterfly looked against the two fern fronds. But is it okay that the butterfly is centered in this composition? Are the ferns too bright? Are there other things that need to be improved?

Comments and suggestions are desired and greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

The centered composition works well, as does the overall color tonality. Good sharpness and the image emphasizes the BF ability to blend into its environment. :wavey:

The centered comp looks just fine with me, Barbara. What a gorgeous BF, nicely captured. :toast:

A fine image. Not a thing need to be changed.
