Buckeye Butterfly
by Linn Smith
Often seen resting on the ground, the buckeye butterfly with its brown color blends well to the soil. This buckeye butterfly was clearly visible against this flowering color seen around the state of North Carolina.
Equipment: Canon EOS 5D

Great placement, nice sharpness…but i love the background colour. Macro work is tricky on fullframe, but you have executed this perfectly.
