Hi Silvio,

L'insecte est bien plac� dans le cadrage. La prise de vue permet de voir les d騁ails du papillon Anthocharis euphenoides. La lumi鑽e rehausse les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journ馥.

Hello Silvio,
A very pretty butterfly sitting on a very pretty flower. The colours complement each other well and the green ground is sufficiently blurred. This is a kind of photo you really know how to take.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Silvio,
Wonderful photo of this lovely little butterfly. I really like its yellow colours, which go well together with the pink flowers. Excellent depth of field resulting in a nice, blurry backdrop.

Hello Silvio,
In a lush green landscape, the butterfly and flower are photographed in perfect focus.
Both are the subject of the photo but you have left enough space to show the green surroundings.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Silvio,
Again a beautiful butterfly shot. This time the species is quite unfamiliar to me. Pink flower looks lovely too, and blurry green background works well.

Ciao Silvio,
We have two Italian butterfly hunters here on TE. :-) This is a lovely capture. The details and sharpness are excellent, and the purple flower and yellow details of the butterfly stand out nicely against the blurred, green background. Take care!
