Allen, ideal choice of equipment for this type of shot, usually we find that restricted DOF does not bode well in macro but in this case I think it suites the subject well, emphasizing the action. In this case I do not think we would expect to see all elements in focus but we do see the all important eye nicely delineated. Lovely butterfly well shown, I like the flowereand the unobtrusive background.
Allen, you're getting pretty good at these flight shots! Nice light, vibrant colors, a clean background, and excellent sharpness where you most need it. A little more DOF would have made this strong image even better - IMO. From your shooting specs, it looks like you had some wiggle room to up the ISO (say to 800) and lower shutter speed a click or two to thereby increase your f/stop. Nevertheless, this is a striking image as presented.
