Wow, who would have guessed this was taken with a Mju, instead of with an OM?!? Nice!

Surprising color for Astia which has somewhat restrained saturation! Also amazing for a P&S with pro slide film. Proof that an excellent photograph can be made with one and that the photographer, not the camera, makes the image. Composition is nice . . . the butterfly is like the icing on the cake with the plant; adds a sense of purpose and animated life to it.

Beautiful colours. It would have been even lovelier if you had managed to get closer and crop out most of the leaves. But the butterfly's wings (apparently?) colouring the flower is a wonderful idea. I never "see" this sort of shot.
