Wow. great photo. Nothing I can suggest to improve it...the border however...You should either add a normal border or feather it all the way in. As it is now, it looks messy with the feathering and the line. Still a 10 from me though, as I don't mark down for borders. I usually only add points for a really nice original border, which I think you were trying for, but it doesn't work for me. Luckily, you don't need that extra point anyway! Great job and good luck.

I think this is great! I love the composition and choice of sepia. It well illustrates the topic of the challenge.

Comment by mci:
i think the background texture really kills this. the lighting is decent, and the shapes and colors of the butterfly are nice, but the texture in the background is really distracting. 5.

Nice pic! Good composition and color tone. Great job! Critique: I would have had the banjo supported somewhere (he appears to be resting/sleeping while supporting the banjo, you would think it would fall).
