Excellent picture Roberto. I like the light and sharpness that bring out the good color and details of this very natural picture. Congratulation. Saludos.

Ciao Roby,
When I see such a beautiful photo like this, I realize what we lost with your absence from TN. Hopefully you return soon. Excellent lights, sharpness and colors, the b-fly stands out so well against the uninteresting background. Top class work. Bravo!
Best regards, László
