this is callicore astarte shot at Cristlaino river, amzon forest.

the callicores are one of my favorite group of butterflies, popularly known as "89" and some "88" and "80" butterflies. ( so are the diaethrias )

Beautifully warm color and lovely texture throughout this fine image, Andre! The unusual design of the butterfly is wonderful. Very nice composition too with the diagonal perch and pose of the butterfly. Well done!

That's a striking image, Andre- both as a composition, and the butterfly itself. I really like the way you've enhances the amazing colors and geometry of this beauty. The slant is great, as is the neutral background. Incidentally, I see a sideways face on the wing-two eyes and a mouth...
I like that in this case the butterfly isn't abstracted , as it has such an interesting form. Very fine work!

Beautiful bold colours and patterns Andre, it reminds me so much of Australian Aboriginal artwork - but of course all their inspiration comes from the earth and nature. The light is the icing on the cake!

A beauty!
