Ted, Splendid butterfly! The colors are awesome and so is the clarity, not to mention the dof. Wonderful image!

What a separate colour of the butterfly. It is exactly as if he has lain in mud. And it has been dried on. And that mud starts fall there finished. (The orange colour).
Beautiful!

This is as good as it gets. Beautiful creature on a gorgeous bloom. Amazing what bomber pilots can "zero in on". It's a keeper.

I'm struck by the difference in the colors of the flower and the colors on the butterfly. They speak to me of summer's delicate blooms and fall's strong, yet equally fascinating colors...this to me is a very nice transition photo from season to season and I'm sure it will make a very nice desktop as well. The clarity is shown in the detail of both your subjects, as every crisp hair and marking on the butterfly's legs, feet and wings are so sharp they look as if they are under a microscope, and you can see the flowers "petals" standing up until the feather weight of the insect. That's what I call clarity :) The composition is naturally presented, and naturally appealing..but what I like most about this, as I said is the juxtapositioning of the two seasons portraying a gentle transition. :)PJ

Great closeup shot! The only thing that keeps it from being perfect is the noise/graininess in some parts and the excessive posterization on the background.

This is a Red-Banded Hairstreak. Very flighty and hard to capture. Great job! Especially since most are the size of a quarter, if that. Nice!
