Love it. Lots of personality in this shot with the swallowtail seemingly getting swallowed up by the day Lilly. Beautiful colors. Nice clean background. Great job, Leslie. Posted: 09/05/2023 17:46:13
Great shot!!! That is a butterfly that really gets into his "job"! The image itself is superb! Sharp, crisp, and perfectly focused! and your title is whimsical to match the photo's action! Very nice. Posted: 09/13/2023 10:27:32
Very cool! Made me giggle Leslie. Posted: 09/20/2023 10:11:15
I love this different type of butterfly shot. The swallowtail really stands out, as opposed to a monarch that maybe would have blended in too much. Nice and sharp and done well. Posted: 09/22/2023 14:17:32
In case you didn't know, I have a weakness for butterflies, my fav subject. And your photo is one of the best butterfly photos I've seen. Well done. Posted: 09/23/2023 13:47:22
