A beautiful female Polyommatus Icarus (the true entomologists will tell me if I'm right ;) ).

So, OK, this butterfly lacks focus. But the hues and setting are, to my mind, beautiful.

I am very interested to know if you think this remains a good picture, or if you find the lack of focus too disturbing.
Please leave a comment ! :)

EDIT: I decided to allow download of the original file. Maybe some people will misuse it or print it without me getting a cent for it, but I think the risk is still remote.
And fuck it, I'm here to share my art, not make profit.

For me, focus is everything. I won't post a photo with a subject that's out of focus.

I figured you just had a soft focus going.

That being said, I think it's a beautiful shot! The colors are fantastic.

I'd like to take a look at some more of your photos!

there is confusion the common blue is the you have uploaded but this one karner blue is considered endangered i am not sure which one i have but mine have only two sopts on the wing where as yours have 9 as described in wikepidia your classification is right that is common blue so karner blue is different it description is below

The Karner blue, Lycaeides melissa samuelis, is an endangered species of small, blue butterfly which is found in significant numbers within the Miller Beach community of the Indiana Dunes National Park. The butterfly is also found in other parts of the Great Lakes in small areas of New Jersey, and also in southern New Hampshire, and the Capital District region of New York. The butterfly, whose lifecycle depends on the wild blue lupine flower (Lupinus perennis), is classified as an endangered species. In May 2000, the Canadian Species at Risk Act listed the Karner blue as being locally extinct in Canada.[1] This subspecies of Lycaeides melissa was described by novelist Vladimir Nabokov. It is sometimes placed in the genus Plebejus.[2]
