    That first one is very different, very cool. Lovely stalks leading to the background. Seems surreal and something from the distant past.

    The butterfly is awesome. Great colors and lighting. Seems like fill light coming from somewhere. Very delicate image :thumbsup:

    Thanks Mike Loupey all the lighting is natural daylight , this Painted Lady was in no hurry so i was able to get about 10 shots at different angles and with different light because of the clouds moving in and out . Glad you like them
