I don't know what's wrong with me that I never knew any plant or insect names, as you do, so clearly, here. Mind you, I drew from nature and plant and insect books (with big photos), but never retained a single name. So, when viewing artists like yourself---who know all these names and genus's and varieties---I feel like a total dunce. Beautiful clarity on the butterfly, and how it stands out from everything around it. And clarity on the flowers too (in the foreground). Your background has a natural and easeful fade to it. A lush crowded nature-feeling in this gentle beautiful shot. Composed/captured well too, in the way the wings continue the lines of the bouquet behind it, and the tall stalk acts like a contrast to the insect. More very sensitive nature photography from you...there are days, living in a high rise, where I wish I could walk outside to this, rather than to more high rises and tons of cars...
