Gulf Fritillary

I was lucky enough to find this Fritillary early this morning. It

was a little cool, so the BF was covered with dew. This image was

taken facing into the early morning light with a little fill flash

to illuminate the subject. Comments welcomed.

Good shot, nice colours. I don't tend to be overcritical, the subject seems to be well placed, but I'm still curious to see if a different cropping could work.

I love the crop, colours and everything about this. How close did you get?

Having the same coloring and tones overall works well with this image. It's sharp and well-lit. The seeds on the right mimic the shape of a butterfly, making this an interesting composition. Nice work!

This is of very high aesthetic quality. This is an work of art -- far superior to the common highly rated run-of-the-mill closeups.
