Nice color in this image, very good shot. Looks like he has lost one tail-I was working on a Monarch the other day that was a little beaten up and you see that this time of year.

A pretty closeup scene in good soft light that shows the colors well.

The use of depth of field is very nice here and conveys a lovely scene.

Its amazing how they manage to fly with all the beat up wings !!. Great take - may be put some black into the blacks and increase contrast a wee bit ?
