Yel...love!, a photo from Milan, Lombardia

Photographer's Note

I had some free time today while a long week of work awaits me. I went hunting despite the 34 degrees and many midges. I was rewarded with this beautiful butterfly catch in love. The species is Colias crocea, it is a diurnal butterfly belonging to the Pieridae family, widespread in Eurasia and North Africa.

Oggi ho avuto un po' di tempo libero mentre mi aspetta una lunga settimana di lavoro. Sono andato a caccia nonostante i 34 gradi e tanti moscerini. Sono stato premiato con questa bella cattura di farfalle in amore. La specie � la Colias crocea, � un lepidottero diurno appartenente alla famiglia Pieridae, diffuso in Eurasia e Nordafrica.

Bonsoir Luciano,

Les feuilles aident � cadrer les insectes. La prise de vue permet de voir les d閠ails des papillons Colias crocea. La lumi鑢e donne un bon rendu aux couleurs de l'image. Bonne soir閑.

Pozdrav.

Lep pogled, interesantan trenutak, dobar tekst ...
Priroda radi svoj posao ...
Lepo leptiri, dobro pokazani sa lepim bojama, kontrastom i uhvacenim trenutkom.
Dobar rad, lepa fotografija.
Lepa krila leptira i detalji na njima.
Kod mene je malo svezije i sa kisom, meteorolozi najavljuju velike vrucine.

Zelim vam lep i uspesan dan, sve najbolje.
Paja

Hi Luciano
A great capture of this pair going for it. You have to propagate the species. Another good macro.

Hi Luciano
You are very interested in butterflies, you can understand this from your pictures. Clarity and lighting done well. Beautiful shot. Thanks for sharing

mkamionka (75079) 2022-06-14 12:12

Ciao Luciano,
Amazing scene. In fact I remember several such scenes in your gallery from various destinations and featuring digfferent species. It must be very difficult to capture a scene like that. For me even capturing a simple butterfly is too difficult and this looks twice complicated...
Did you use flash here?

Hello Luciano,
There are lots of different appealing shades of green in this photo, both of the butterfly and of the surrounding leaves. Superb sharpness and clarity.

Hi Luciano,
These butterflies make a very nice symmetric pair. Perfectly in focus as usual. I like the light showing through those leaves.

Hi Luciano.
Magnificent composition in this case with two butterflies, which do not seem to want to greet each other, each one facing the other, their colors are simple but they are always very photogenic in any shot.
Sharpness, lighting, color, and magnificent composition; They are managed perfectly, in this beautiful image.
Good work. I like it a lot.
You have a good day. Very best regards.
Luis.
