Oh man! I never thought anyone could take a photograph and get me thinking a FLY was beautiful. ..but you have succeeded in doing just that. Amazing macro. The colors and focus are to die for!

Crap - I'm sick of butterflies, but man, this is so vivid that it just MAKES you look at it. Great focus. Love the rich tones with the black for contrast.

Comment by Jutilda:
COOL - looks like we've both been playing with filters today. This is really textured nicely. Unusual. Almost leathery in a way. I like it.

Faerie Kiss

Comment by glad2badad:
Did you mean to say 'Fairy Kiss'? ;^) The way this has been processed gives the butterfly a 3D feel, which is cool. I'm trying to figure out how the tail end of the butterfly has decent details, yet the tips of the wings look blurred or smoothed (noise reduction maybe?). DOF could be impacting this view as well...hmmm. I look forward to coming back after the challenge and visiting your comments in the photographers comment section.

Good luck in the challenge.
