Lycaena tityrus

wicked capture of a very cute butterfly.

the first thing that catches my eye is the blasted copyright. not sure why people do it, since i doubt many people profit from their images, but people sure do seem sensitive about this issue, so that is what influenced the impact. also why is the copyright text on the left starting in the middle of it (cut off)? could have been omitted completely to the left of the huge copyright symbol.

so that's a shame that such an awesome capture that probably demanded a lot of patience and effort to get right is diminished for such a benign reason.

the butterfly itself is awesome, with the orange parts and the otherwise plainly-looking wings. love the position on the branch and the superb detail of the butterfly.

what would be wicked is to somehow try and get a lot of other butterflies in the exactly the same position for the capture and have a whole series of them. probably an impossible task, but still an idea...

love the whole thing except the watermark. one thing also that 'bugs' me is the font for the name. looks like something from comics (bad comics). something more elegant would be better here.
