Auto ISO 2500 -0.3, 1/1600 sec f11

This was the first opportunity I had this year to get orange tip butterfly. The image was taken at my back garden pondside, I had deliberately grown this plant to attract the butterfly... don't you love it when a plan comes together?
High ISO and shutter speed due to breezy weather.
All C&C welcome.

You nailed this one Jon! Light, colors, sharpness, comp, and background are all first rate! Very clean considering the high ISO. Looks like a couple cloning artifacts in the background near the ULC - easily fixed. :S3:

You are right Steve, I missed that!!

Fantastic photo of a great butterfly perfectly situated on the colorful flower!
