Hello Anne,
A very beautiful composition showing the two Scarce Coppers on the dry seed heads. Both are sharply in focus and the colours are beautiful. A lovely soft green background too.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Anne,
Excellent details, DOF and colours. Unobtrusive BG. Very fine work. Perhaps a slightly tighter crop would be worth a try, top and left? Have put to my favourites, with many other Lycaenids, now. Many thanks.

Hallo Anne!

Das grüne Sternchen ist wohl verdient, das Bild musste zum Favoriten für jemand auf TN werden: herrlich weiche Pasteltöne, zwei ebenso zarte Schmetterlinge, das Ganze technisch perfekt und vor allem gefühlvoll...

Grüessli

hi anne,
very beautiful capture of these cute coppers.
you have presented the underside not upperside, a bit of saturation and contrast will improve the image. composition is fine and great background. the natural placement of seed pods of the plant and the b'flies are what makes this image very nice. tfs.

Hello Anne,

I like very much the light color tones you are showing in our photo. The background looks great giving me the feeling it is mouving. Butterflies and plant they are sitting on have also very fine colors. Main subject is shown with good sharpnes.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Enhorabuena por tan bello trabajo.

Bonsoir Anne,
A superb macro showing two L. virgaureae resting on a seed-head looking almost camouflaged. Technically this superb and the composition with the OOF natural BG pleasing.
Thanks for sharing this unusual and attractive image,
Best wishes,
Ivan

Ciao Anne,
bellissima cattura di questa coppia di piccole Licenidi, ottimi POV e composizione, molto buona la definizione, mi piace molto anche il tuo stile (personale) elegante nella scelta delle tonalità dei colori.
TFS.

Bonjour Anne,
Il n'est pas facile de bien focuser sur un papillon alors 2 à la fois, c'est encore pire mais ici tu as réussis un très joli tour de force, surtout que ces petites créatures sont très petites! J’en ai vu des semblables cet été (ils étaient bleus) mais avec le zoom que j’avais, impossible d’obtenir une photo potable… Les 2 sont bien détaillés avec de belles couleurs et composition. J'aurais peut être réduit un peu les niveaux dans les "High lights »(c'est bête, je ne trouve pas le mot français...) mais ce n'est qu'un détail, ça demeure une très, très belle photo. Merci!

Bonsoir Anne,

Une très jolie prise que celle-ci... La netteté est superbe, les couleurs naturelles et la lumière bien dosée...

Que demander de plus ? ;-)

Cordialement,

Anne, you are lucky to see and capture two of them on the same perch.
Again a wonderful composition with minimal distractions.
Even this side of a Scarce Copper's wings has its own beauty.
Thanks for sharing this lovely pair.
Regards.
