Jimbob - I don't know if you had the good fortune of the monochromatic background, or of you manipulated in in post-photo, but, in either case, it is a perfect backdrop for this orange and brown flutterby. Nice dof as well. Good work! Thad

The cornstalks make a great background for this beauty JimboB. How many acres are in you back yard? Beautiful post work. The butterfly really stands out.

That is a very beautiful butterfly Jimbob and a very nice capture. You are finding lots of things to photograph without leaving home these days.

You're starting to really irritate me, Jimbob. I can't find anything at all to complain about in your postings these days. This one is perfectly composed, sharply focused, colorful as all get out, and genuinely an excellent shot. The detail is wonderful. What's not to like?

If I had been that wonderful butterfly, I had chosen a more colorful background for the one and only portrait in my short life, lol.

Wonderful post Jimbob. Very well done!

This is a stunning capture, the color of the flutterby that is so sharp, and well focused with that background is a superb contrast. ♥♥tigs=^..^=

In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art. ~Rumi~

this is neat! i like what you have done to the background so its not too foofy to isolate the butterfly, and the focus is nice and sharp on the butterfly too. a fave for me.
