Your opinion? Melitaea eye

[MinitecaPhotographie]

Another photo from my last series of early morning outgoing. Here is an eye of Melitaea who is a common butterfly here is south of France. I shot him when the sun was rising at the back but like I was at maximum magnification and using the flash with ISO 100 the background became black. I like very much the contrast between orange colors of the butterfly and the black background but I'd like to have your opinion about the complete photo...

the right side of the image is a bit to blur In my opinion, and did you cropped the image as well MinitecaPhotographie ?

There is no crop in this photo, only a 16/9 format. The blur at the right side is natural because of the DOF.

Alright, thanks a lot MinitecaPhotographie, that's why there was a bit of blur. Have you tried stacking techniques?

Not on this outgoing. But I've already done focus stacking on butterflies at high magnification ratio.

I checked the picture in 1:1 scale and I like the fading DOF MinitecaPhotographie . The viewer's eye automatically goes to the eye of the butterfly so the blurry part is not distracting for me.

great capture MinitecaPhotographie , unless you're stacking you can't remove the blur on the right, this is not at all annoying, considering the magnification, you should have an aperture of f500, for it to be completely sharp.

Yes of course. The main subject is the eye of the butterfly that's why I didn't stack.

That's how I interpreted it.
