Shot in a butterfly conservatory. For those who haven't gone, you should, it is a photographers dream. This shot was taken with a newly purchased Nikon 6 T close up lens. Focal length was at 6mm. I couldn't use a tripod in the conservatory. There were many shots that could have been used for this challenge. As a matter of fact I settled for this shot at 11:45 pm. Hope you liked it as much as I do.

Beautiful entry. There were just too many good ones in this Challenge. Yours also belongs on the first page!
Good seeing.
Thanks for making me one of your favorites. This is a first for me. I am learning more each day, and strive to keep doing better. Keep looking; I’ll try not to disappoint.
Very pretty and a pleasure to look at. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.
Thanks for the compliment. Coming from you, it means a lot. It's obvious that you are very talented. You do excellent work, and it shows by your numerous awards. One day I will get one, maybe even two or three. ;)
7 - Good. Criticism; title too lengthy, plus you haven't captured the coloring mentioned so, selling your shot short in a sense. Difficult, but would like to see it sharper and perhaps a touch more contrast. A slightly different crop/composition may also have made this better in my opinion. Good meeting of the Challenge and camouflage capture.
What a pretty picture - it suits the challenge perfectly! I think the composition would be stronger if you had rotated and then cropped so the the back edge of the wings made a diagonal across the picture with the tips of the wings on either third.
Excellent capture. Would like to see this butterfly with it's wings open. Nice shot. Just started voting but I think this one could be a winner. good luck.
