Shadow Butterfly

[MoinMoin]

Not every butterfly is waiting on a flower for it's "shooting":

Nice one Moin. I love the detail on the butterfly. I also like the butterfly's shadow. I find the other shadow(flower?) a bit distracting.

I like the shadow play here and the butterfly looks really nice. The surface that the butterfly is on isn't the most interesting, but we take what we can get.

Nice shot. Harsh sunlight is a bear to shoot in. All you could have done here is to create shade with something and/or use some fill flash. It might have brought out more colour in the butterfly. I agree that they are not the most cooperative models- I still haven't been able to talk one into posing for me:)

I like the composition and the shadow work. Well done:)

Thank you for your comments!

@F8&Bthere: Yep - I am also still searching for the right butterfly bribe to get them into posing :D.
