 I know some people will see this as a shoehorn image but it was the first thing I thought of when I saw the challenge description. Anyway it was taken far away from any city or park so I suppose it was a real stretch for this challenge.

Great image, but I have to take your word for the city part.....the image does not convey that.

Something like this would not only be missed by most people casually visiting a park but also by most photographers trying to capture an image. The wonderful timing and colors reveal your skill.

With an agapantha in bloom I'll guess this is Australia. Great capture and stop motion on the butterfly. Nicely done on the background. It marginally fits the challenge, but it's worth a good score. I don't like the spider web lines, but it does show very good detail.

Beautiful contrast. I think it could be improved by showing some light around the moth & the flower, even moths need a little light to navigate by.

Glad you threw in a title that makes it clear, or I may have overlooked the connection to the theme. Nice stop motion. Only distraction is what looks lkike a spiderweb under the moth. It divides the frame up.

great shot but it seems to need a sky and not a black background

Technically well done. Unusual pose for a butterfly.

very nice pic that normally would have got an 8 from me - but mate I think your in the wrong challenge, this is really taking the piss -50% of 8 is -4

What a well timed capture. Everything is crystal clear. That it fits the challenge is a little ominous. But well done.
