Looks nothing like the dinosaur I was expecting to see. It looks even better. Nice clarity and lovely colours in the photo. Good focus work in the shot.

The focus is really quite sharp as it travels from tip to end of flower and swallowtail as well. Color is super and the blur is nice. I love it Sandi.:)

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
