Wow, Bunn. You certainly have some exceptional butterfly images. This one is brilliant in its coloration. I like the comp, light, subject detail, and separation from the nice background. I only wish there was a little more room on the left. :toast:

Great detail and colours! I'd also like more room on the left - and a bit more on top too. It's always tempting to crop as closely as possible, but - often - a bit of room all around creates a much more pleasing image.

This is full frame...no crop. I will add canvas in CS6. Thanks for the input.

Very beautifully executed, Bunn. The flash looks very natural and the butterfly is a beautiful specimen. I too would like just a bit more room on the left and top, but this works as is.
