Hello Jose,
This is a beautiful specie that you caught very well. I like those tones of green and those great details. The pose of the butterfly is superb with good DOF and composition. You must be proud of this picture and your note is very useful as I didn't know that rainy days were good for butterfly :) Thanks,
Claudine

El punto de vista con las hojas carnosas en primer plano desenfocadas es realmente excelente Jose.
Son realmente muy buenos los detalles que captur+o tu Fuji marcados y bien definidos, con una cálida paleta de colores.
El encuadre es agradable con buen OOF posterior a pesar de lo cargado del fondo.
Gracias por el dato de los días lluviosos... trataremos de aprovecharlos en el futuro :-)
Un gran saludo... Ricardo

Hi Jose

Another terrific macro from you, my friend!
I really love the exceptional sharpness of every detail here - it's simply outstanding!!! I really like to see all that hair on its head and body that clearly and the eyes look amazing, too.
The side POV is excellent, too, as well as the DOF that isolated the butterfly superbly from the BG.
Lovely colors, spot-on exposure and a charming composition.

Bravo and TFS

Hola José Miguel,
Que gusto te debiste dar fotografiando a esta cooperativa mariposa!
Uno siente la emoción durante esos segundos ganados a la fortuna, y presuroso de obtener tantas fotos como se pueda.
Muy bueno el resultado, sobre todo me impresionan los ojos verdosos y los nítidos detalles obtenidos en toda la mariposa.
Me parece que quedó muy bien como usaste la profundidad de campo.
Enhorabuena por la foto, y gracias por compartirla.
Saludos,
JM

Dear José,
outstanding, excellent butterfly portrait - finest details visible, very beautiful subdued colours. And I very much like the stage of thick leaves with some of them being precisely on focus between soft ones, revealing most beautiful hairy structures.
Superb presentation of Blanquiverdosa - obviously from one of its native birthplaces.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter

Hello Jose,
Excellent presentation of a fresh specimen of the Bath White, with exact focusing, excellent BG and comp.
In Sweden cloudy days or early in the morning or late afternoon are good butterfly photography times and when it is raining they hide under leaves.

Hi José

Wow MF, this one has gone straight to my favourites.

A brilliant capture of a lovely little butterfly. The macro work is spot-on with stacks of details showing on the insect. I just love the contrast between the insect and the BG and the exposure was perfect.

Very well done and TFS.

Hello Jose!
Finally after a few days of break I am back to TN ;)
This time some words of comments not to plants but to insect :)
I have to say that this is rather rare species in Poland (even if it can be found more often that e.g. 10 years ago - maybe because of climat change?).
The photo is very nice and beautiful, with good details seen on wings and eye.
I like also a note - short but informative.
TFS and all the best,
Radomir

This is a wonderful capture and has earned you some well deserved points. I love how the butterfly's color tones with so much of the fore and back grounds. He is so sharp and it is interesting to see how fuzzy his little body and wing edges are. Nice work.

Beautiful composition! Maybe an higher aperture could have made the backgroung smoother. The colors are very natural and I think that the use of flash would have burned the highlights on the white spots of the butterfly, so it was better not to make use of it. My best regards.
