Photographer’s Note

Special for the fans of this beautiful butterfly.
Sorry I have looked on the web, but I could not find the name. a Little intro.

This was 45 minutes driving with the car, and I can recoment this beautiful butterfly garden. It's realy great, and special for our Belgian, luxenbourgh and Dutch, and French photographers. This is the bigest butterfly garden in the region. About the photo, words are not enough, but I like the pink and yellow flower, it has a great dof, and it's sharp, and the looking through details of the butterfly, are great. I like the composition a lot. Wonderful with a great dof. I realy love this one.I hope you will enjoy it too

Eaven special thanks to Pelib he has given the name of the butterfly and that is Greta oto. Thank you Peter

Weer zo'n mooie foto Jaap.
Ik heb voor jouw en alle TE-ers het verlossende antwoord op de vraag welke vlinder het is.
Het is een ........ Glasvleugelvlinder, de Latijnse naam is Greta oto.

Prachtige serie vlinders Jaap, maar deze is niet zo scherp als gewoonlijk door de belichting van links vermoed ik, als ik fout ben laat het maar weten. Maar toch blijven uw foto mijn facineren. De vlindertuin van Knokke staat op mijn programma! Eerst goed kijken naar de meester en dan eens proberen!!!

Very nice picture. It is a pity that the definition is not the best. Worth, too, a clone work over that spots (dark and white) over the wings

I agree with you that the part which is "in focus" is sharp indeed, but considered the line from your lens to the subject - the butterfly - the area in focus seems laying precisely in front of the butterfly. Not something to be embarrassed about, since it is quite hard to get the focus spot-on when using such small DOFs so typical for macro and telelens photography... How far where you standing away from the butterfly? Did you use digital zoom or optical zoom?

Beautifull ssot, pity as a litle more of sharpenes (DOF) on the butterfly's body.

An amazing butterfly. Those see through wings are incredible. Te butterfly itself is a bit unsharp but still this is a very good capture.

I loved your "looking through the bird of paradise". Something strange is happening to it though, when i'm looking at it from home. The colour becomes converted on half the picture. Looked at it at work today - just had to see it - it it was amazing.

Toujours de bons détails pour cette macro encore plus rapproché.
Bien vu encore une fois Jaap

Mooie vlinder. Goede compositie. Mocht iets scherper.

Beautiful macro!, the flower's colors do a very atractive picture. Aa lot of patience. Can you post the shutter speed and the F-Stop you use for this picture? Great job!

Your hand, your eyes and your patience.Where did you get them? And because of your butterfly series, I am suddenly very interested to know how you captured them. Will be looking forward to come here again sir.

Hi Jaap!!
A qualidade fotografica e impressionante. Mas o que chama mais a atenção são as cores e a elaborada composição. Parabens.
Um abraço.
