Wow. Every once in a while I am shocked to see a photo score so much lower than I scored it. The funny thing is that I'm fairly color blind and didn't even notice the yellows other commenters point out. Still looks b/w to me :)

Still, despite the DMNCs, this is a lovely photo and I hope you keep entering shots of this quality in the future.

I don't think that using sepia toning is really keeping in the spirit of things, personally.

I know that the mind can fill in the blanks sometimes when it comes to missing information (like color in a black and white picture) but it definitely looks like there are shades of yellow in that butterfly's wings.

The Challenge demanded that the photo was black and white, whereas this is still colour.

Photo is good, and would have scored much better had you made it balck and white.

Description of challenge: "The final photo MUST be in black and white (and the grays in between)."
I've gotta vote you lower because of the color. Bummer... I'm sorry. :(
