butterfly shadow

this was taken a few weeks ago, i'm pretty sure it's my first ever buttlerfly shot, and by no means as nice as the ones on this site!! I was excited nonetheless, no pretty flower but a glass window instead. I liked the blur of the garden behind the glass and the shadow of the butterfly behind it!

Cool shot. I figured you'd applied a shadow affect in PS or the like but it's all el-natural. Nice!

Looks good to me. You got her wings outstretched. I like it!

That works very well for me Trude. I love the simplicity of it, and the artistic look of the background. Quite simple, yet stunning shot. @runningbk the weather forecast is awful on the IOW this week, I fear that nothing will be seen!!!
