" common tiger" is his name then ! .. thanks for the info and for this superb capture Arman, .. unfortunately no chance to get this in the forest or country in Europe, fellow, .., we need to get to bf parks to contemplate them, .. TFS

best regards

Most impressive and i believe my favorite today already! LOVE the background your low f stop proved an excellent choice and even with the compression fracture you still managed a breathtaking shot. A bit of high contrast noted but what better way to bring out the vibrancy of this amazing species!

Arman,

Colorful image and has the characteristics of being delicate in addition to colorful. Jumping an F stop or two might have increased your DOF enough to capture the entire butterfly in focus. Anyhow well done.

Mike
