I captured this image at Alligator Point in Panacea, Florida. The background could be better but I could not pass up such a perfect butterfly. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

That's a beauty Jo, I don't think many could pass up on a beauty like that! At first I thought it must be related to our Peacock butterfly but the latin names seem to bare no resemblance.
Lovely details and colour excellent plane of focus and DOF, back ground is a bit busy, if you were so inclined you could destructure and lower contrast in Viveza.

Hi Jon, thank you for viewing, commenting and suggesting a way to improve the image. I have the Nik software loaded on the computer but do not use it often. I will give it a try. Lowering the contrast I understand but not sure what you mean by destructure. If you see this maybe you could explain. Thanks again.

Jo when you open Viveza you will see brightness contrast and structure, so long as you don't overcook it is possible to get good results
