Description
A butterfly taken at Melbourne Zoo... There was maybe 2 trees with enough light so all in all it was rather frustrating... But worth it when I got home to see thisRelated content

Awesome picture man. Its so detailed and crisp. I dont think anyone but God could paint something so beautiful. I think that the green background and the leaf it is on really make the picture complete. This is a good lesson in perseverance given your limited shooting choices. I have tried to get pics of butterfly a couple times and they have never really turned out. Great job and thanks for sharing.

It's stunning! What a wonderful capture of tones and lines, light and movement. I love the winged-beauty, so proud atop the leaves. Nice blur and shadows too, well done, wonderful capture of nature.

very nice focus, colors and dof .. only things i find a little distracting is the green leaf which sticks in at bottom and an odd black square from middle right to bottom

Ah, this is gorgeous! I love the contrast between the background and tips of the wings. The light is captured perfectly! We're hatching painted lady butterflies in my kindergarten class - now I'm excited!

Beautiful photo! What sort of butterfly is that? I like insects, but they're as hard to photograph as birds! Great job!
And Down Under by Men at Work just popped on the stereo as this pic started loading... Life is funny.
