Hi Norma,

Looks pretty good with a nice frame filling comp.  I would tone down the bright milkweed flowers as they bleed into the hindwing.  Otherwise, a fun picture to examine closely. Well done......................Jim

This is a fine take on this Great Spangled, Norma.  The details and colors in the bf look great and it's a fine fresh one.  Your comp. and framing work well also.
