Beautiful composition, image and exposure Lady Jackie. The details are nice and sharp; color rendition is dead on, and well placed in frame...a big congrats to you...proud of you...:cool:

Jackie, there is a lot I really like in this image--I like the details in the dark, the curve of the stem it is on, and especially the amazing sharpness and details of the butterfly! Here you show how a bright bg actually complements a dark subject, contrary to typical! very cool! might perhaps tone down the lightest parts of the plant. Great great sharpness and detail on that butterfly! wow

Hi Jackie - very nice - i like love the details and the sharpness, exposure is perfect - well done. :) :) :) :) :)

The only thing I would have wished for would be that the leaf didn't interesct the antenna's (or whatever the correct word for them is)
