amazing colours!??

Nicely done with the angle as well, getting as much of both tongue, face and wings in focus.. you must have been at a precise 90 degree angle

I compose as I'm moving in and after a while those "magic angles" become automatic. The color is due to the leaf -it acted as a green reflector and seemed to magnify the green of the butterfly.

The butterflies around here never seem to land.
Let alone allow me get close enough to shoot 'em.

Great job!
