WOW! Don't know how I missed this one. This is beautiful! Love the soft sunlight and the detail on the butterfly - the DOF is fantastic. My newest Favorite! :-)
A thank you goes out to everyone that voted and commented on this photograph. I was very please with this picture because the only editing done was [auto level, auto contrast, and resize to 640x530. NO other editing done and it showed me that my camera [and I ] have the possibilities to take imo Great Pictures without having to do a lot of editing. The F2.8 lens really did a good job with a small DOF. I’m very happy with my score; it is my best so far. Again thank to everyone!
Nice uncluttered background thanks to the shallow DOF and further enhanced by the backlighting.
Hope voters give this image the time and score it deserves.
Nice work
Beautiful shot. Exceptional detail. Love the colors on the butterfly. The dof provides lovely soft pinks and greens. Very nice image. One of several 10's. Congrats!
This is beautiful. I love the soft background against the perfectly sharp butterfly and the flower it is on. And the backlighting adds a lot of life to the butterfly. I hope to see this picture right up near the top! Good luck in the challenge!
I have certainly seen, (and taken), many butterfly photos, but I like this one particularly well. The lighting, color, composition all contribute to give this a lovely soft, airy quality, with colors that look old-fashioned, almost hand-tinted. The way the butterfly is hanging off the branch out into the "negative space" area, gives this composition that "something unexpected" that I love to see in photos. Thanks for another favorite!
