Went out to family property in the country to shoot some butterflies before the last of the wildflowers are gone for the season. I’m absolutely in love with this profile shot of a painted lady! Decided to do two different color edits, which grabs your eye? I’d like to hear!

Edit: I do realize I left part of the masking off under the belly, luckily I save my original tiffs 😅
