The butterfly is presented in a lovely, simple, and effective manner. Well done. Good luck. I wanted to participate, too. However, a butterfly is not an insect. And hence I did not proceed.

A lovely image of this butterfly against a pale background accentuating its colors. The position and the angle of the shot in the frame is good. I imagine the outlines of the butterfly could be a little sharper.

Hi Nieves, I don't think I've ever seen this butterfly before! I like the coloration. You did a great job with the focus and lighting. I like the slight angle of the butterfly. I think you presented the butterfly very well! Good Luck in the bug contest!

This butterfly is beautiful and not one that I recall seeing before. I love its color pattern , especially the blues and greens .
The butterfly is well placed within the frame and I like the way it is slightly angled.
Well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural.
The soft pastel background works well to emphasize this butterfly .
Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

Comment from Montana Shooter
This is a lovely photo of the butterfly. Do you know what kind it is? Your pastel background works nicely, although I wish you had included its natural environment as it can lend more to the story. However, I am fully aware that the background can be very distracting... ;-). Good luck in the contest!
