This one I missed whilst I was away sweetie.
As usual it is WOW! just awesome my lovely friend. I love the details you have captured, at an angle, in the butterfly's wings and that delightful blurry buzz from the superb dof is superb. Well done to you my clever girl your work is always so very pleasing. A HUGE HUUUUUG and again the very best of wishes......Ray
