A very pleasant scene with excellent composition. Well done, Phil p.s. If there's any spare water-send it our way in California -

Thanks for your viewing and comment. Trying to achieve images that reflect some sense of their fragility and beauty is a real challenge. Fortunately as I have noted in earlier posts our garden provides a gathering place for both hummingbirds and butterflies. Thanks again, Phil -
Wonderful "story telling" image. The challenge now is to make up the story. Congratulations, Phil -
Very nice combination of composition, color and imagination. Congratulations, Phil -
Wonderful image. It is the kind of a scene that invites a quiet or even meditative mood for me. Congratulations, Phil -

Thanks for viewing and your comment. Luckily these subjects are literally in my back yard. Getting good shots and lighting is a real challenge. It's a lot like trying to make a still life with the subject continuously moving out of the frame. Thanks again, Phil -

Thank you for your viewing and comment. I have found photographing them is very rewarding-as well as challenging. Today in my garden I happened to see two of these Swallowtails together-there wasn't a photo opportunity, but I realized the time I have spent photgraphing them has enhanced my appreciation of their beauty. Thanks again, Phil -
A wonderful image; the colors all work together and provides a classic mood for the photo. Congratulations, Phil -

I really like the B & W treatment. In particular in addition to the comments noted earlier, the tonality bring out the aged look of the building. congratulations, Phil -

Thanks for viewing and your comment. I worked on the earlier image generally following Tony's thoughts. I like this image compared to the other version. Thanks again, Phil -

Thank you for your viewing and suggestions. Looking at the image now, I realize I cropped it too close on the right hand side. I had played around with the vignetting before uploading; looking at it now, the reason I didn't use more vignetting as probably that the radius was too large and was darkening more of the print than I wanted. I really appreciate your suggestions, even when I approach the image differently than you, your comments always make me review what I did and why. Thanks again, Phil -
A beautiful panorama that begs to be printed on canvas. Congratulations, Phil
