Nice photo. Good separation of subject and background.

Nice subject!
Sharp detail and good colors. To my eye, the butterfly would be better placed in the right side of the frame, as he is facing left. THis would make the image much more balanced.
Still, a lovely shot as is.

The comma is nicely contrasted to BG, it stands out well in your frame..
Color, exposure, and DOF look great.
I have to agree with Sandy on the overall composition, and the dead space right.
Still a nice catch :toast:
