l like that touch of purple in the BG, very nice.

Not as clean a BG as some and for some reason I prefer portrait in these type of shots but an attractive image non-the-less

I agree with Bob .
Too many are with plain backdrops. Good for ID shots but they don't give any habittat indication. Still- personal taste again.(And my excuse for messy backgrounds !!

Nice shot anyway.

Sharp and well detailed image I don't see a problem with a little environment.

I like this very much, excellent detail in just about the right amount of background too.

Nice and sharp butterfly. Comp or cropping is very much personal but IMHO a vertical or portrait comp would have given it more room above and below and accentuate the grasses.

I agree with Nick and Phil, portrait format would have suited the vertical grass stems, but even so a good shot of one of my favourite butterflies.
