I will never try to shoot a flying butterfly, Ursula, because I know that I will be desappointed remenbering yours.
How many beautiful photos I missed while on holidays! Of course I take this delicate, charming image with me.
Ciao Ursula.

Ursula, I have been away and as I look at your latest offerings, I am overwhelmed by the way your creativity has blossomed. This photo is so magical in the way that you have made such a bold statement by understating the rich space. You not only captured the butterfly skillfully, you have done so with such artistic flair! This is simply beautiful, and goes directly into my favorites....

Many thanks,Ursula

Hi Ursula, please don't convert this to B&W! Why would you want to do that? I think it will induce an atmosphere on the photo which isn't there, and isn't needed either. A B&W photo will only reduce the impact of this photo, and quite considerably so.

Cheers,

Hugo

Dear Yutaka,you know my settings are rather unorthodox,I cannot even repeat it...pure accident :) And btw...your butterfly is lovely !Butterfy shooting reminds me actually a bit of skeet ...only less noisy :)
Good morning there...

Hi Ursula,

this is usually not my type of photo, but this is definitely the exception to that rule...

The large area of negative space is excellent; it really makes the butterfly in mid air stand out. Also, the subtle details in the background and the DoF are pretty impressive, everything in this photo falls in place. Great shot!

Cheers,

Hugo

Excellent use of DoF and of lighting. Nicely shot. Here is one of my butterfly images:
