A beautiful picture of this Monarch butterfly it's beautiful patterned & coloured wings glowing out from it's black and white background. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera & editing techniques & sharp focus.

Butterfly are very delicate and useful insect in our gardens. Monarchs are probable close to top of the list. The composition is really nice and color contrast appealing. The softness of the butterfly and the sharpness of the plant is a great moment to capture.

Very nice shot of this Monarch. I like the black and white back ground. It really makes the butterfly stand out. Good focus and lighting. Sharp detail. Nicely composed. Well done. Good luck in the photo contest.

ALMOST PERFECT NOW..a very good capture of this Monarch butterfly sipping nectar from a thistle flower; good lighting with sharp details;
unfortunately, your entry will be rejected: selective color means only ONE color; here you have yellow and orange, even if one assumes that black and white are not colors..

Very nicely done! A great contest entry and a real 'pop' of vibrant colour against the black & white composition. Very good clear nature image and focus. All the best in the contest and great capture!

A very good entry into the competition posted here for us to enjoy! Your fine and classical composition offers us a good look at your beautiful butterfly and its location. The colours contrast well with the greys. Well done and good luck!

What a perfect entry for the contest. Nothing more beautiful than a Monarch butterfly and you have captured it's true magnificence with your photograph. Making the background black and white enhanced the bright yellow.

Cool!
The classically colorful Monarch butterfly perching on a colorless thistle set in a drab grey background presents us with an interesting 'Out of the Ordinary' type of a scene!
It makes for a 'Good Show',my friend!

A very nice shot. The composition is excellent and the selective color could not be better. I like the sharp focus on both the butterfly and the thistle blossom. Best of luck in the contest.

The selective color is perfect. The monochrome background emphasizes the beauty of the butterfly remarkably. The photo has excellent depth, is perfect focused and expertly treated with mixed media. I enjoy the sharply refined detail. The butterfly is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.
