Hi Ivan!

You present us a nice butterfly picture, and, as we are used from you, in a technically perfect manner. The sharpness is fine, the colours are natural and the composition highlights the beauty and the details of the insect. I also like the blurred, but still natural background. Moreover, the picture is just pleasant to look at.

Your notes are very instructive and interesting, too. Thank you for this!

Kind regards

Markus

Hi Ivan,

This Small Skipper looks so delicate and dainty posed on the leaf. The position of her head and eye makes her actually look coy. Beautiful colors, details and textures - the body and wings are wonderful. As always, a lovely background and composition.

günaydın Ivan, good morning dostum,
as you know, summer just finished and autumn started. our portfolio changed a bit from birds to macro-shots:) I see you also prefer butterflies. This is very beautiful hesperid with yellowish colors. It gives great poses usually. Your capture also great. focus, POV, colors and composition very nice. informative notes also. Thanks for sharing, best regards my friend

Hello Ivan,
Technically excellent portrait and a pleasing composition. I like the way we see the fore wing on the right and the hind wing on the left. Very useful to see this way. Yhanks.

The leaf and the Skipper are well isolated from the plain and smooth BG in this image, Ivan.
The green of the leaf and the gold of this Skipper's wings go very well together.
Overall, a wonderful composition that feels good to the eyes.
Regards.

Hello Ivan,

What a beautifull light in this good close-up of the skipper. You have focused well on the insect and the chosen DOF has kept it whole in focus. Therefore fine details of the heary body and texture of wings can be sharply seen. The strong light allowed nice and natural looking rendering.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian
