This is a very sharp shot and has good depth of field.
I love the reflections and colors on the animal. The background is nicely out of focus. However there is one small flower that's a bit unsharp in the foreground

This is a lovely image-this is the second time I have seen a buckeye butterfly-they are lovely- I like that he and the bee are sharing the pretty flower- the background blue is very nice-butterfly is sharp and the bee is there but not interferring- very pretty initial inmpact-

This is one of the best butterfly photos I have seen. You have great detail on the butterfly and great colors. The background is wonderful. I think maybe a slight crop off of the left would help. There is a lot of empty space there but just a bit.

Nice overall image. The yellow blur at the bottom is very distracting. The colors are good and the focus is sharp. Nice bokeh. The lighting is even and pleasing. I would suggest cropping to get rid of the yellow blur and some of the right side of the frame. Thanks for sharing.

Very pretty. I like the colours a lot. I think I would suggest that you think about getting rid of the yellow blob at the bottom it is very distracting. You might also consider cropping this so that the butterfly is not centred so much.

    thank you for your review. I agree about the blob. I had it posted & someone else had pointed this out to me. That is what I like about this web site. I need the input so I can see my faults. I love photography & I want to get better.

This is a truly beautiful photo I really like it. You have captured the butterfly well. I love the colours in the wings and the vibrant yellow of the flowers. Well done.
