Laurie how did I miss this one...sheesh...awesome..I love it..so delicate and beautiful, the desaturation is lovely too.. and the background is perfect. I posted my first butterfly shot yesterday, thought about you the whole time I was taking them...I love this as I do all of your work...beautiful composition...:):)Linda

This has a beautiful delicateness to it, Laurie, something I think the desaturation adds to nicely! I like how a bit of the purple from the flower reflects off the butterfly's wings. You got some great shots at this place!

Excellent shot Laurie. The desaturation has worked to perfection and helped remove any distracting backround colours. Given the black and white nature of the butterfly it was a good idea to desaturate I think as it brings the butterfly into greater prominence in the shot. Well done!

I really like the composition, but for me, I think it's desaturated a little too much. Or maybe I'm just use to your usual photos with rich colors lol. Still a wonderful capture Laurie, nice work! =)

Love how you have desaturated, I was trying this yesterday with a moth shot that had an awful background - but it still didn't work well, this works beautifully great composition

Laurie,

This is excellent. I like your alternative approach with the dessaturation. Most people look to boost the saturation, but your approach is very eye catching.
