Hi Peter,
long time no see. :-)
This is very nice picture of a beautiful butterfly. The buttefly is sharp with very fine details, you also manage to get the white right. The BF stand out well from the blurry BG.
It must be a cousin to Clouded Apollo Parnassius mnemosyne.
Well done, mf.

Hi Silvio,
long time no see. ;-) Just popped in this was the first I saw.
A very rare butterfly, even in my country where it lives on maybe 2-3 places.
Good exposure with lots of details and the insect stands out well from the BG.
Well done, old friend.

Hi Jose,
a nice picture of this beautiful butterfly. I hope I can find some in Almunecar where I am living now.
The picture is sharp with good details and with a nice soft BG.
Maybe the WB is not correct.
Well done.

Hello Asbed,
this what I think is a Trichoceridae, or winter crane flies.
Not often we see this species, I have seen these in Sweden a couple of times.

Merry Christmas

Hi Bala,
a nice shot of these Lesser Flamingos, it's an amazing pink colours.
Decent sharpness, well exposed and nice natural colours, but as most of your pictures it's very tight,
leave a bit more space both in front and behind and it will look even nicer, just a hint.
Well done.

Regards
Gert

Hi Ram,
it's nice to see you still are active after all these years.
This is a real close-up of the head of flesh fly-
Well detailed , we can see the cells in the eyes and even the long tongue. Not an easy shot.
Maybe a bit dark but it's ok.
Well done, mf.

Hi Ram,
just poped in and saw this fine picture of the Jumping spider.
Well handle with the fill-flash, it looks natural, not like a contrast flash photo, really nice to see.
Also DOF is good, the most important parts, eyes, head and front legs are in very good focus.
Well done, old friend.

Regards
Gert
