    Mike, the butterflies are lovely but why did you decapitate the flowers? I would love to have seen a bit less green at the top and seen the ends of the petals at the bottom. You got lovely detail on the butterflies and the light on them is gorgeous!

    Wow this image almost looks fake or set up it looks so good. Really bold image, sharpness and DOF are great.

    Agree with Julie, showing all the petal ends would really improve the image.

    I would desat the greens a little on my monitor they are electric.

    Thanks for your comments. Attached is the stem version, There was some junk that needed cloning at the bottom and I was in a hurry with the first post. The bg is oof grass, recently fertilized and 10" of rain last week. As always, comments appreciated, I am on a macro learning curve.

    Beautiful image. Liked the back-lit on the wings. Re-post surely looks better composition-wise. The greens still look a tad over-saturated.
