A team effort for this gorgeous and elegant presentation. To see it and to get this beuatiful picture is amazing. Just love the presentation with the composition, the beauty of the flower and that fasinating butterfly posed on it. That background is the perfect color for a compliment to this pretty image. Exceptional work my dear friend. #9081589
