This is such a pretty butterfly and you've captured it beautifully. It's so dainty and I love all of the little details, esp around the face and the edges of its wings. You chose a nice comp as well.

Beautiful shot Ken, well focused and the flower is perfectly exposed. I do not think the butterfly is overexposed but I think I would be tempted to lower the brightest highlights a little bit. I suspect I am saying this becasue there is a big contrast between the butterfly and the background.

Very nice shot Ken. These are such tiny little things and your DOF and comp is very nice. I agree with Jonathan about toning down the highlights a bit. Also, you might try a selective color layer to blend in that white spot behind the butterfly. Overall, a nice photo.

Hi Ken. You nailed this one! A beautiful subject giving you a great pose, excellent overall sharpness, and a good comp. My only issue is the bright area behind the butterfly. If you can tone this down more (or remove it) this image will be over the top!

Very nice pose of this butterfly, good sharpness, and a mint condition exemplar. The flower is looking good too...

Hi Ken, wonderful butterfly, nice perch and great composition. Too bad about the bright spot behind it. Actually, I'm more distracted by the two OOF green spots to the right of the butterfly, which seem to compete for attention. A little toning down would do the trick. The edges of the wings seem a bit soft where the front and back wings meet. Maybe a little selective sharpening?

Nice one Ken! The bright spot is a bit of a distraction, but not much.
The shot as it is gives a very good detail of the species.

Thanks everyone for your comments. 
I'll have to take another stab at removing that bright spot.
