Anatomy of a Butterfly Wing

Comment by mighty_bison:
I think that the inclusion of the entire wing would have made this photo a serious contender for one of the ribbons. Aside from that, it's a rather impressive photo.

I like this! The grass in the foreground really adds a nice layer dimension to the shot, the water/reflection is nicely still, the fog really adds the atmosphere. It definiately captures the early morning light/feel. Dare I say it's a shame about the background? I like the tall structure, esp as the top is lost to the fog, the rest with the power lines and the industrial factory is not something you usually see in a very moody and pretty shot like this, but for the exact reason that's what makes it different.

Good idea but way to much glare.
Looks washed out.

What a cute little emergence! I love the way the poppy looks like it's made of paper. Nice viewpoint - just a touch soft on the focus - but a good shot. Could have been improved with a little sharpening I suspect.

This was a good concept, but the wings turned out a bit blurry for my tastes.

Timing is everything. Well, also exposure, shallow depth of field, lighting and focus. Great shot.
