    Hey Jonathan,
    I've debated the room on the right.....mostly because it is tight top and bottom.....which I like......so leaning towards less room there......although the sweep of the grass is wonderful! Outstanding BG and great use of the flash! Even with the room debate......this is another beauty in my book! Very well done!

    Very nice pose, sharpness and details. I like the leaf and BG. Room on the right?...I think I like it as presented because of the leaf line. Very well done!

    The bfly, perch and the BG all look fantastic. I don't know what's been cropped off so you many not have the canvas but I think this would look good as a vertical.

    I'd also take some room off the right. I like the sweep of the stem but as it is I find my eye following right out of the frame. Beautiful butterfly portrait, though...stunning details, Jon.

    Stunning! Love the details, the BG, the colors, the perch. I do think it needs to be a bit narrower, but not sure how I would crop it.
