Barb, how fortunate you were to catch both butterflies with fully extended wings. I love the way they're positioned (sort of 90 degrees to one another) on such a colorful background. My only suggestion would be to consider cropping out some of the green foliage on all four sides or vignetting the image to better focus attention on the butterflies themselves. Very nice!

Barb, this is a great catch.
Sharp butterflies and flowers, fully-extended wings, and nice colour combinations.
Fine work!

Barb, this is a great look at these two BFs in a very colorful setting. How nice to get two nectaring on the same plant. It's been a very slow butterfly year here in the mid-Atlantic with folks guessing that the lack of BFs is due to the very heavy spring rains.

Beautiful shot of, not one, but two beautiful butterflies, and with their wings spread at the same time! Awesome. Great detail and color.
