Beautiful catch Fabrizio, loses slightly the upper wing, but I find it very very beautiful absolutely not easy to freehand.
Compliments. :-)
A flower greeting.

Hello Fiorenzo, thank you for the compliment. When it is bottinando so hung it is difficult to have the wings closed and parallel. I wish you a good weekend, weather permitting, hello Fabrizio
