Very nice shot! Good focus... the body of the butterfly is terrific ! I like the angle of entry into the frame --- with the leading line of the yellow flower. Perfect DOF -- all the attention is front and center!

A wonderful picture of this beautiful Zerene Fritillary Butterfly alighted in the yellow flowers with a misty blue green background that makes it stand out in three dimensions. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting that shows off it's beautifully patterned wings to best advantage taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Very lovely. I love the well-defined lines, patterns, and designs in the wings. The tip of the antenna is vivid. Nice gentle, purple and green background. The yellow blooms made a nice setting. Excellent focus, framing placement, angle, lighting and strong technical skills. I think, you can still clone that branch from the right, to completely give our focus to the butterfly. This surely feeds my soul.
