I'll admit I have a fear of butterflies (yeah, I know - a silly fear), but I think your shot is quite nice. I like the contrasting colors of the butterfly and the flower. Nice, tight composition too.

I'm guessing the yellow part is the main subject which is a little too centered. nice image though

I like the shallow DOF here. It really works well.

Super sharp image. Beautiful subject with highly complimentary background thrown perfectly out of focus. This is fantastic! Would prefer the center of flower to be placed more to the right at the intersection of thirds. Would give higher rating, if not for thirds placement.

Sea Dragon II

Comment by CLarson557:
This is an amazing shot. This is my favorite of the versions you have of this sea dragon. I'm going to assume that you had to shoot this through an aquarium glass, so I'm very impressed. Seems like you might have picked up some noise in the dark areas especially on the left side of the picture. There probably is a better way to get rid of it, but what I do when I don't want to soften the subject by using the noise reduction function, I use the smudge tool to blend the noise in to the background. It works for me when I have a nondescript background as long as I don't get too close to the subject edge.
