Well, I suppose congratulations are in order because it was selected as the winner by the Epson judges, but it's a disapointment to me. I'm a very keen insect watcher and this is the first butterfly I've seen standing on it's knees! The subject has got to be stone dead, yes? The back feet would be locked behind the stem so it doesn't get blown off. The creature would never allow it's wings to hold water so it's had a little help with an atomiser, yes? There are some stunning photos in this competition that took some incredible patience to achieve so I'm left a bit puzzled.
Some brilliant examples of butterfly photography can be seen by Tom D. Jones, a Hassleblad master.
