Holy cow! Look at all the lovely details on this butterfly from the curled proboscis to the segements of the wings! Wonderfully composed where we see the entirety of the butterfly in an up close and personal view. You bring us right up to the main subject and show us all of it's winged beauty. Wonderful job in tones and contrasts for the range is quite dramatic and eye-catching.

Brilliant. Such emphasis on the butterfly while playing down the other elements (even the flower), which throws all the attention on your subject. The diagonal lines work great, as does the composition as a whole. Nicely done!

What a great macro of this butterfly - ths silky smooth background really amplifies the crispness of the details on the cute little guy!

That's awesome Mia! You are truly the queen of making sepia magic! I love the slight grain on just the butterfly!

Beautiful work as always!

Wow. Nice photo. Composition, focus and tones work well with this shot. Love the graceful lines of the butterfly and the bokeh.

You should be very proud. If I ever saw a better bug macro in b/w. This looks great! I especially like the sparkle in it's eye which leads me up the elegantly curved antenna. I bet this in high res would make me drool ;)

FANTASTIC composition, your high key shots are just amazing. I love how you caught the butterfly's tongue. I think i would like a pure black border a little better but that's just picky

Wonderful DOF, and contrast is great - you captured so much detail in the wings and body.

WOAH. That is fabulous. Perfect in BW with that hint of brown tones. Gorgeous.

This is really a lovely shot. The bokeh is beautiful, and I like how the light patch behind frames the wing a bit. Nice crisp detail in the body; the proboscus is great and perfectly defined. Good work...
