I LIKE this image!! This is far and away the best "not a skyline" shot in this challenge that I have seen. Top 10.

Excellent blend of motion and still. Great colors. intriguing scene. Great job.

Nice compositon, like the dark background and the light on the wings.

I just love that the couple seem oblivious to the drama playing out behind them.

I really like the soft subtle activity, and great processing. I love how the colors go together.

What I liked about this was the magical waves of blurry white. Look almost like little angels. Glad you did not try and get a stop motion capture here - i think it would have killed some of the drama.

Ooh, he's a beautiful butterfly, but he's also slightly out of focus. Extend the DoF to include all of him.

I think the processing and the border are cool. They transform a mundane scene into a futuristic, almost robotic, image. I think I would have liked it even better without the green -- it's too warm -- but I like the touches of cold blue. Maybe if the hue of the trees was changed into something cold too, they would fit the rest of the image better.
