I would like some feedback on how this shot looks on your monitor in regard to light balance. I sometimes wonder if the contrast/brightness on my monitor is close to those of others.

Nice shot, Ron. It looks okay on my monitor, but might be very slightly bright. but this may be caused by a slightly over exposed shot (the white flowers), rather than a difference in monitors.

A universal concern! Looks a little bright compared to the way my (few) Monarchs look on mine. The bulky portion of the tiny white flowers have a little highlight burnout out - the butterfly itself looks very good but a tiny bit light. Could be it is lighter colored than mine. Good luck with this one - unless it is the same monitor calibrated the same, and even then?!

Looks good on my monitor. The white flowers my be a bit blown out. Otherwise, it's fine.

I am viewing this on an IPAD, so i am not sure my comments would count. Overall it looks good to me. The white flowers may be a bit blown out. But not something that can’t be corrected.

Earl.


I totally agree - or a difference in processing preferences.

Here's one I pp'd after increasing the monitor brightness a wee bit. Taken with my great Sony 18-135mm SAM on the A65. Kinda 3D effect looks nice.

Much better, not as washed out. A brighter butterfly would have helped but still a nice shot.

A perfect Queen it is, Ron, and I agree with Earl about the exposure.

A fine shot though a bit over exposed.

Nice shot. This looks like a Monarch Butterfly. Do you have a shot of it with it wings opened?

No I don't. I'm sure that Donna would have corrected me if it was a Monarch. She keeps me honest.

I go with Monarch.
Compair hind wing and very dark line along veins.
This is a female.
