lovely colours on b'fly but purple tinge to rest of pic clashes.

You didn't greyscale the background like the challenge asked for - why not? I would have given this a 9 or 10 easy if you had finished the last step.

Very nice. Love the clarity and color of the butterfly, but, I don't really like the purple-ish color of the rest. You should have made it a light grey (lighten the rest using Levels, etc) which would give a great contrast with the dark butterfly.

Love the dark tones of this shot. Bug pictures are often too brightly lit for my taste. I also love how you shot shows depth and how the butterfly is clearly focussed. Good work. Among my favourites for this challenge.

Great detail and focus. The intricate color patterns on the butterfly contrast nicely against the desaturated background.

WOW. this is amazing. i love the dreamy fantasy feel with the sepia. I wonder if you're getting dinged for using sepia and not pure b&w?

Very strong image. The only thing I don't like too much is the rather purple duotone background, the color takes away some of the contrast/impact of the butterfly. 8

I thought part of the image had to be gray scale?

Very nice macro shot though, good focus,
