The butterfly season is over here, so I've been taking another look at some of my butterfly images from past summers. This one is from the butterfly tent.

Striking butterfly, Barb, and very well photographed. I like the comp, the pose, and the bg.

Barb, that's a lovely butterfly and you've got good sharpness on the bf and the Blackeyed Susan plus a nicely soft background.

Very nice, Looks like you got the dof just perfect, to me. And you picked a very pretty subject. Nice job

Hi Barb,

I like how you were able to get some crisp detail on the wings and perch with a pleasing, soft Bg...............................Jim

Barb, Love the open wingspan and the gradient green color in the wings. This is a very active species in the butterfly house. Beautiful shot!

Very good work Barb.
One nit picking suggestion would be to remove the single blurb of color, URC.
It draws the eye from your subject.
Nicely done
