Not seen a single one yet Phil.

Tack sharp where it matters :toast: :toast:

Haven't seen many speckles this year Phil. I am finding the very pale spots to the upper wing a little distracting, possibly tone them down a little? How the 105 brings out the detail! They can be quite flighty so you did well to get so close.

nice comp and detail Phil. Colours maybe a little too warm?

Looks good to me, macro is still a dark art for me. :biggrin:

I like the pose and, as Andy says, it is sharp where it matters.

Can't fault it, Phil. Love the eyes on these and as already mentioned it is super sharp :toast:
