Eric Kong's Animals & Natures

olrite, will do.

This photo below was taken when i was in Mulu National Park last march;



Would like to hear from you viewers how can i capture it much more better than this shot here.

OK.. Here you have 2 main objects, which object do you want the viewer to catch attention? the flowers? or the butterfly?

If you want the flowers to be the main attraction, maybe you can try doing close up on the flowers and framing all other subjects out of the picture but still with the butterfly out of focus.

Vice versa for the butterfly to be the main subject of your shot.

It is not easy to grad this shot as well with the butterfly, i have seen people chasing and running around to get butterfly shots.

Hope this can help, just my 5 cents.

hmm... i get wat u mean. i should not try to focus 2 subjects in 1 frame right? i wan the flower but with the butterfly's wings effect at the side of it initially.

Your framing wise maybe you can trial and error and see which you like best to your own preference.

If you want to see greens, maybe you really have to enhance the color of green in here. And make it more like green leaves. Watch your color balance here.

it is ok. Just take my suggestions and see what you can do. Don't take it too hard.. Just keep trying!

Yes, shoot what you like and take people's opinions and suggestions for your own references.

I welcome comments and critics cos that's how i can improve.

Yes.. But agreed to make your color look more greenish.

Thank for sharing! Hope you can pick up some pointers here!

Nice to share!

You viewers really helpful to me, thank you so much!

No problem man.

Hope you can learn more here and share!

Get inspired and keep improving!
