Good composition and use of color. Some sharpening would bring out the details in the wings.

Butterfly had two "t"'s....

Somehow this photo lacks a little saturation, otherwise good composition.

In my opinion, insect shots where the subject takes up a significant portion of the frame, and the subject is centred tend not to work. This is because a viewer will want to focus on the eyes first, but the photographer has made an arbitrary centre of the insect's body the focus. The butterfly is also too centred vertically, I think it would have been much stronger if you had cropped a significant portion of the top off. Very nice butterfly macro other than that, shame that your background is a little distracting just above the butterfly. Great light, good detail. Shame about the glare on the foreground flowers. 7

Great depth of field helps separate the butterfly from the background. Beautiful profile of the butterfly. Good composition.

Beautiful! Nice bit of backlight on the wings. Shooting lower down may have allowed a view of the sky which could have avoided the bland background.

great light. Good be improved with a bit more attention paid to the backgrounds, but a good capture on the butterfly and the backlighting/ sidelighting makes the wings glow
