nice composition. I'm no pro by any strtetch but I played with your pic and created a bit more colour in the yellows to help it stand out a bit more. Hope you don't mind. I'm just starting to figure out Photoshop.

thanks for taking the time to look and comment. Johnny I played with the saturation too but decided that I liked the lighter tones- it seemed to show more light through the wings and added to the delicacy.

Hey Bambe - Nice!
One of our local greenhouses has a butterfly exhibit each year...though they have sugar water for the kids (and adults) to put on their fingers to attract the butterflies to land on them and most of the butterflies end up with damaged wings.
