Stunning Mandy - i love the background, it's beautifully blurred, but somehow seems in motion, simply wonderful!
Mandy Schoch  Such a great comment, Gary. Thank you! I was hoping to try again in this field this year since it gets such beautiful light in the afternoon, but my goats ate everything in sight....typical :)

Well composed and beautiful macro:-)
Mandy Schoch  Most days I think the world, my camera and my lens have highly exclusive private parties together, so I'm always honored when they invite me to join in the fun once in a while :) It's truly a pleasure to receive such a compliment from you, Ben. Thank you!

Simple elegence always works for me the dreamy background & the inspired choice of placing the butterfly on the lower left corner make for a terrific macro.
Mandy Schoch  Ahhhh, dreamy background and elegance-- you've made my day :) At first glance to many this probably appears to be a butterfly shot, but for me this image is not really about the butterfly (he's simply the supporting actor, stage right, if you will). I'm so happy you commented, Gerard. And thank you for expressing your thoughts-- really glad you see precisely why I made this one.
gerard sexton  My pleasure Mandy you made my day just telling me we are on the same wavelength! Beautiful...have a great day.

Very beautiful! Lovey composition and a soft inviting light...
Mandy Schoch  I am thrilled you think so, Carola. Every now and then there are days I wish the sun would just hover above the horizon and never set. This was one of those days for sure :) Thank you for your generous comment-- it means so much to me.

Beautiful. The bokeh is really lovely
Mandy Schoch  Fabien, that is a wonderful compliment coming from you-- thank you! As I am sure you know, sometimes these images are really not about the butterfly at all :)
Fabien BRAVIN  This is exactly the point. So many people see a poor lonely butterfly. Again that's a really beautiful transporting pic
