4 please – a butterfly fluttered by.
All are so good!
01 Channe Moore is my favourite
04 The butterfly
04, the butterfly. It’s so delicate.
The butterfly – its beautiful
Hi photo no 1 by Channe Moore is stunning.
My vote is #3. It’s one of the few images with soul.
Photo 3 for me!
Photo 2 for me!
Number 1, 2, 4 and 5 are all beautiful photos.
But Photo 03 by Johan van der Westhuizen gets my vote.
Not only is it beautifully composed, but it is FULL of character. Full marks from me, and it gets my vote.
I love the light on number 2 by Esaias Calitz – but this was a tough call!
wow! wow! wow! such a mind relaxing photo… Esaias gets my vote
Photo 4
Def pic 3! Most depth to the image, and not just depth in the pic, but in the soul.
Photo 4 & 5. Beautiful!
Photo 3. Definitely.
04 Margherita Introna – excellent photo, taking that one handed couldn’t have been easy without the butterfly flying away
Number 4 gets my vote – beautiful!
My vote goes to pic 4!
It’s not easy to get a butterfly to sit on your hand
very strong photos this month! love them! I will have to go with no. 3
Number 4….Nice one Margherita!
My vote goes to pic 3 Johan van der Westhuizen ! Just a stunner 🙂
#3
I think that Photo 3 gets it – all are lovely shots (esp. No. 4) but 3 has ‘that something special’ feel to it!
ya, im all for number 3
Number 4
4 definitely
Number 4 – Margherita Introna, timing, how often do you get to take a shot like this? The other photo’s are great, but I love photos that you can only take once and that makes it unique.
#3 .. not generally a fan of b&w but this one is captivating, u want to go up and have a chat. Great.
3 Johan van der Westhuizen
No 4!!
Number 4, obviously.
Number 3 – love black and white..
No 4 – Margherita but no 3 by Johan is absolutely brilliant – very hard choices this time round – all are very good
