I was so sure I had reviewed this photo before, but obviously not. I really like the way the light is shining through the wings of the butterfly. It is possible to see the shadow of the body through the wings, and the butterfly has got such rich green glow.
Your focus is spot on and very sharp showing clear and well defined details in both the butterfly and the flower. The background is nicely blurred for the butterfly to stand out in the most excellent way, and the exposure is perfect.
The tight cropping and the placement of the butterfly makes this to a fine composition. This is really a beautiful photo, and well taken.

I do not think I never show such a green butterfly, or maybe if I show it I thought it is a leaf
excellent capture , great focus, details and composition

Very nicely done my friend. I love the sun also going through its wings. The detail and colors are super nice. Framing is excellent. Well done.

Excellent image. I agree with your observation of the translucent wings; but I wonder if it would be possible to increase the aperture just a tad to sharpen the flower? Also wonder if slight fill flash to illuminate the foreground of the flower would be possible without killing the translucent quality?

Wow, I've seen, and painted butterflies in the past, but nothing, and I repeat, nothing, compares to this. It is simply Magnificent. The creature, the flower, and the light shining through, completes for me, a magical photograph. I am not a photographer, so I speak simply from the heart. tremendous.

A brilliant stop action picture of this Sulphur Butterfly supping nectar from the center of the flower. The backlighting is a added bonus. Superb composition, framing, camera techniques & razor sharp focu.
