    The dof problem with butterflies, here--either a parallel, wings closed shot to get all in, or take the hit with something oof. I find myself wanting more interest in the body or head to make me not notice the oof wingtips. Lovely colors and veins on the far wing.

    Stuart this is a tricky one from this angle, a large butterfly such as this will require a considerable DOF when taken from above. I like the colours and exposure and the head is sharp.

    The colors are beautiful, and the head and abdomen are sharp. But I agree with the others commenting above that more DOF would have been better. It also may be in this case, that the result would have been better if you had backed off a little. That would have improved DOF.
