Particularly lovely for a minimal editing challenge. I love the softness and light of the daisies and sky. With more editing, the contrast and color in the butterfly can be increased to make this image spectacular.

Congratulations on this very well deserved ribbon. The chain is fabulous, the image is fabulous, and the title is good too. I love the DOF, the composition, the light, and the colors. I gave it a 10, and I'm so glad you won the challenge.

For some reason, I think the vignette in the sky is too much, because the the lowers corners of the image are so square. I realize it's a natural vignette, but with all the horizontal lines in this, it seems to conflict.
Now for the good part. I like the image. There is something happening here -- as Melethia says, you can see the wind. The colors are lovely too. I'm wondering if a narrow border would take care of my concern about the vignette -- leave the vignette, but bring the black from below up around the upper corners.
