This is the only stage of the Monarch that I dont have. This is fabulous. Congrats on the yellow, I hope that I am lucky enough to see one someday as I have a lot of Milkweed plants on our 6 acres and I make sure they dont get cut down. This is the caterpillar's staple diet and too many farmers and people are cutting them down.

Beautiful shot!! I didnt even notice the reflection until I read your notes.

With this guy maybe to have him crouching one knee on the ground one up and his arms crossed across the knee, body turned slightly away and face towards the camera may have relaxed him a bit more? Boys like to be macho LOL.

When you redo this one rather than having her looking straight on at you with her body and her face get her to sit facing towards her left more and to turn her face towards you. Be careful that she doesnt tilt her head at an odd angle which is the natural thing to do when you do this pose, keep her head vertical and chin level. I think this will compliment the other shot you have in the background more which I like a lot. I am not a fan of the straight on passport shot which is why I suggest this, it is also more flattering. Hope this makes sense.

This shot is beautiful, has it all, focus, minimal depth of field, bokeh and it is colorful and eyecatching. Great shot good luck 10

Wow what a great photo, It just has such a great atmosphere to it, you can almost feel the wind and cold. I would love to know what the instrument is that he is holding, looks a bit like another version of bagpipes. Good luck 10
