I love how the olive colored background brings out the silhouette and colors of the butterflies

Thank you! I was so shocked how the colors came out on this one. This is my favorite butterfly shot I've taken.

First of all I love butterflies. We were walking the path that runs by the old train station. A little further down is a big statue with lots of flowers and bushes and a bunch of butterflies were flying around around them. So I got my camera out and started snapping shots. I had zoomed in on them and kept moving to the next one that landed. Then these two butterflies were in my view and the bee landed next to them. It's my favorite picture I've captured so far! I was a little bummed the second butterfly shifted and you can barely make out he's there, but this is such an amazing shot!Editing

I always carry my Cannon T3 EOS with my 85mm and 200mm lenses.Feedback
You have to have patience when shooting butterflies.
