Excellent use of a shallow dof with a neutral yellow green bg and superb differential focus. Perfect sharpness and lighting. Tfs!

Hi Ricardo,
Lovely view of this butterfly. It seems like the wing glows!. The flower is lovely too. Blurred green background works well.

Another magnificent macro photo of a butterfly on a flower. Their colours are nicely matching and the blurred green area provides a perfect background.

Hello Ricardo,

This is, indeed, a wonderful photograph of the butterfly! We can see the lovely wing patterns as well as the sharp details of its head, antennae and proboscis.
The insect and flower are beautifully displayed against this useful bokeh.

Have a lovely w/e,
Bev :-)

Hi Ricardo
This morning I was lucky to have an opportunity to spend some time photographing three species of the same family: Painted Lady, Red Admiral and Peacock (Inachis Io) butterflies in my local park. Wish we had this beauty here too!
Great image, the subject is well positioned and combined with a lovely flower. Thanks to backlighting we can see intricate details in both. Neutral background works really well too.
Best wishes
Kasia

Hello Ricardo, a perfect presentation of the White Peacock butterfly.
The bright light highlights the pattern and colours of the insect and flower so well, all set against a beautiful bokeh.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hello Ricardo,
I've noticed that a few of your last photos are butterfly ones.
The quality of this picture is fantastic with plain hazy background.
Thanks for sharing beauty of the nature.
Best regards,
Zbigniew
