Indian Skipper

[Vikram Gupchup]

Indian skippers are one of my favorite butterflies. Probably it's their simplicity that appeals to me :)

I was not even carrying my camera when the two of them landed on the dry flower.

Wish they were sitting a little apart.

Lovely composition. The simplicity makes this one for me. The details are nice and I like the B/W treatment. I would like to see the colour version as well. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful composition. I agree with Bibhav. The water droplets add to the image. A vertical framing would look good too. Thanks for sharing.

The black and white treatment is nice. I too would like to see the colour version. The depth of field looks adequate. Background is well diffused. Slightly less space at the bottom would be fine as well. Overall, looks nice.
