Hi Alan,

Full Frame? Very nice composition, colours and point of view! Love miniscule detail shown here!

Nice sharp image. I think also a good composition and contrasting colours.

Hi Alan,
Worth a bit of suffering I reckon, to get this. A really nice, natural looking image and looks like you've found a less shabby specimen here compared to your last one.

Good depth of detail, nicely captured

However, is it possible to remove the small part of stinging nettle poking out under the right wing?

Hi Alan,

Very nice indeed. Love the colours and it really "pops" out of the screen.

Regards

Nice shot Alan, super detail in the flutterby and the colours are very nice, makes for a very pleasing image.

Like this better than the previous one Alan, looking more vibrant - more how I've seen them
