Hi Yun,

The head and wings of the lycaenid are nice and sharp. I also like the dappled light purples in the BG.......................Jim

The soft colors are really nice Yun. I love those sharp striped antennae.

The subtle colors in the bf are great, Yun. There's also a fine color coordination with both the flower and the background.

Really well done! The background add to an already excellent shot. How did you get so close to one of these skittish little guys?

Hi Skip, I got close to them very slowly, patiently. Some are not camera shy.
