Hello Fatih,
Woooooooow ! 560mm with a such sharpness : great photographer with a super camera. This species is lovely and I like this perfect profile view. Composition, subject, pose, POV, sharpness, DOF, blurred BG, colors, exposure are excellent.
Bravo and TFS

Hello Fatih,
I think I'm unusual taking macros with my 420 mm, but this macro of the Eastern Steppe Festoon is really of high quality with excellent sharpness and detail and set against a fine neutral BG. The composition with the blue flower is superb.
TFS and best wishes, Ivan

Merhaba Fatih,
A very impressive capture of this butterfly!
Excellent your POV and the close approach to the insect.
Details got are so clear and sharp! We can enjoy all the patterns and colours seen on their wings, as well the beautyful yellow-orange strips on their body.
It's very good the pose catched, like hanging out from the flower.
I like very much the composition made here, and the soft and neutral background got.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Hello Fatih,
This is a beautiful butterfly which looks like a tapestry. We don't have any close to that species that I am aware of. Breat colors, excellent DOF, and outstanding perspective.

Merhaba Fatih Bey,
Extender ve tele ile cok guzel bir sonuc almissiniz. Fotografinizi gorunce eski Canon 70-300 IS USM'mi ozledim, makrolarda cok iyi netice veriyordu ne yazik ki 100-400 de ayni sonucu alamiyorum, bu nedenle makrolara artik hic bulasmiyorum. Kompozisyon ve renkler cok iyi. Elinize saglik.
Selamlar

Did you use a tripod. That is a lot of lens to handhold and get such sharpness. This is a really nice simple composition with a lovely blurred background.

Hello Fatih!
Beautiful picture of lovely species of butterfly! This is something like "mix" between Papilio and Parnasius as for me :) Great POV and details, DoF is also perfect! :)

Hello Fatih,
Excellent composition showing this Festoon clinging on to a blue flower against a beautiful soft backround. Great DOF, sharp details and natural colours. It's a butterfly I'd love to see.
Many thanks, Ulla

Helo Fatih,
remarkably precise and well detailed, nicely illuminated, perfectly well composed capture of this Eastern Steppe Festoon. Just a slight increase of contrasts in postwork might further increase the impact by pulling it even closer.
Very nice and valuable documentation of the species.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter

P.S.: Thanks also for the useful link on the Checklist of Butterflies of Turkey. Didn't realize before there is such a large number of different species in your country.
