    Hi Joseph,
    I like the composition with the butterfly at the edge of the vegetation and looking out the frame. BG is nice. Viceroy seems to lack critical sharpness and I might clone out the spider's web below the butterfly.

    Hi Allen, thank you for viewing and commenting. My mistake posting the image without sharpening. A quirk of going from Lightroom to Photoshop and back that I did not catch before posting. Here is the sharpened image with the spider web removed.

    Jo the repost looks better but I am not seeing much detail in the butterfly, there is good detail in the surrounding leaves.
    (Was the butterfly originally quite a bit underexposed so you didn't blow the whites???)
