Lovely image. Blurred background gives and excellent contrast to the nicely focused butterfly and flower. Nice and clear without being overly sharp. I would crop more from left and top to get the butterfly and foreground flower more from the vertical and horizontal center.

Nice photo... I like the blurred background, it makes the butterfly stand out more, I think that the top could have been cropped a little bit more, otherwise I don't see anything wrong with this photo.

Great use of colors and nice, sharp focus on the insect. The blurred flowers in the background emphasize the insect.

Stunning. I love the POV from which you have chosen to shoot this guy. The colours and composition put it over the edge. 10

Great shot. The right side needs to be in focus to make this a 10. Good luck

for me this goes on too long, a crop at the top would have thrown the nice focus on butterfly and flower into even more prominence

Pretty shot. I'd like to see a bigger version of this. Colours, lighting and DOF are all good and focus looks like it's where it should be. I'd suggest cropping some off the top and bottom.

Wonderful image. I love the colors! Perfect 10 from me. Good luck!

Sorry not sure what happened, I had voted this a 10 and for some reason it was with my 6 rated shots. I changed it!
