Gary, I feel sorry for you. You didn't do anything wrong, but someone else put in another image with the exact same name in the gallery (after you did) and nobody caught it. The titles have to be unique for the voting booth to work properly. --Olaf.dk

Why was this photo deleted from the voting selection?

Gary, Amazing! How do you capture these guys with such clarity? I see them flying around all the time and they move so fast that I can't even get them in frame long enough to get focus lock. Hats off to you! You don't have an (*) so I hope you don't mind me saying that you've got a spot of sensor dust in the upper right of this image that my eyes keep going to as I marvel at the detail in the wings! E-

Exceptional detail on the wings.
