what a great shot! I've never seen a butterfly (or moth?) like this-do you know it's formal name?

Good shot, great focus. Position of the plant on the left right on the edge of the wing is a touch distracting though imo

I truly do like this image and have score it in the upper level. Having said this, I do believe you might have garnered additional points with a tighter crop, particularly on the right hand side of the image. Good luck.

Awesome with this up and down picture! 10

I had WAY too much fun with the overprocessed comment :)! Most fun I've had on dpc! Watching everybody in the forums talk about the comment.

The leaves here kind of take away from the brown color scheme and destract from the butterfly

Very good detail in the butterfly....did you try taking any pics on an angle? I usually find a diagonal composition more pleasing than a straight on one.
