Another version of "Let's Get it On", with a frontal POV of the female this time. I considered removing the OOF flower underneath the male, but left it in..
F/18, 1/1250th, ISO 1250, 1D M3, 300mm f/2.8 + 1.4x @ 12:36pm. Clear/sunny with monopod for support. No flash.

Superb, Howard. I like this even better than LGIO except for the oof orange flower. I'd clone it out if it were my image which, unfortunately, it is not. :wink: Seriously, I am amazed that you now have not one but two of these behavior images, both outstanding! Your the BF man. :toast:

How cool, Howard, dancing butterflies. The oof flower doesn't bother me, but I could see adding some canvas using content aware fill on the right. Love the body position of the male.

Much better, IMO, Howard. Personally, I think it is more due to the subtraction of the oof flower than the addition of canvas ( :wink: ), but the added bit of canvas was a good suggestion by Mark. Nice job with the cloning and canvas. Again I like this version as much if not more than LGIO One. :toast:
