Ciao Silvio,

Wow, a superb shot with wonderful sharpness and from a great POV!
The butterfly with fresh morning dewdrops adds great beauty to this lovely butterfly. I like the great harmony of colors here. The green BG adds another piece of beauty to the shot.

Very well done, my friend.

best regards,
Paras

Bonjour Silvio
You announced it and you do it too
Sorry to leave you when just beginning to know you.
Another very beautiful composition with that extraordinary plant as beautiful as the butterfly itself; great dof and however a perfect blurred bg which throw the scene out of the frame.
Ciao my friend and good luck

Hi Silvio,
Nice shot my friend!
We'll be missing you from TL!
A lovely composition with this unusual position of the butterfly!
Great use of shallow DOF having the face and antennae in accurate sharpness!
Lighting is perfect and colors are superb.
Hope that some day we'll see your work again on TL!
Good luck and best regards,

Hi, Silvio.A beautiful photograph of a popular but loved subject of butterfly and flowers. The soft lighting, point of view, depth of field is very appropriate for this subject. Congratulations on a job well done. Good post.

• AKITA (12130)
• [2009-10-12 16:50]

dear Silvio,
a splendid picture of the beautiful butterfly and wonder flower.
the pattern and colors on its wing are excellently artistic, and the framed figure of red and green flower is wonder and amazing.
a superb shot of Polyommatus icarus, maybe its hidden inside of wings is more beautiful blue.

it is so regret that this is your last butterfly...
I cannot see the meaning of your "last"...
anyway thank you for your beautiful shots of wonderful butterflies so much,

Alors tu choisis de nous quitter le jour de ton troisième anniversaire ici? Que de regrets tu vas laisser. J'espère que ce n'est pas définitif et que tu reviendras vers nous.
Je ne sais pas si c'est sous le coup de l'émotion, mais je trouve que tu as un peu forcé l'accentuation sur celle là (pour rattraper un petit manque de netteté?)
Amicalement

Ciao Silvio

Please reconsider your decision to leave, or at the very least take a little time out, & return when you're ready. Ignore the forum fights, & just continue to post high quality images, like you always do. There have been far too many good photographers that have left TL already. Another superb macro shot of the butterfly. Good sharpness, color, contrast, pov & dof. Tfs. Ciao!

Ciao Silvio,

A sharply focussed butterfly which shows fine details of shape and pattern, as well as those bright dewdrops! I don't think I've ever seen one so dazzling!
Perfectly judged dof to produce a fine bokeh.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
Please don't say you are leaving! You are the butterfly king!

Ciao Silvio,
I'm sorry you're leaving, but I understand you. Many times I've been tempted to leave, but never did, cause the only thing which I care here is photography, nothing more. You putted more than your technical experience here, and so now you're suffering, and you are right.
I can say that it will be a strong message for who is in a deep confusion among concepts like art and sensibility with arrogance and frustration...

I wish you to find photography and friendship elsewhere ASAP, as you foun here three years ago...

HI Silvio
You took it in your strides for the past 3 years always giving us great shots, and I can't believe that the forum posts will drive you away.
Ignore them and continue doing what you have always done well.
Too many good photographers have left already and I think it would be a shame to let them win by leaving us.
As for this one I think there was emotion in your decision taking as it is not as sharp as always but nevertheless a very nice one to say Ciao.
