This looks like a Kallima Sylvia Butterfly. It is a great shot, but I think it would make a great composition if the viewer could see it on the branch, this way, it looks like a specimen. The color is beautiful and the focus is nice and sharp. I've only seen these butterflies in places exhibiting butterflies. Was this shot taken around your house or at a butterfly conservatory?

Thanks for this great review, Aimee. Actually, this was taken in the branch. I just want to experiment with mixed media. Taken from the Butterfly Palace.

You're welcome. I love butterflies.

Butterfly palace in Branson, Missouri. We've stayed in a pretty clean and small hotel, and the price is nothing. About (5) minutes to Butterfly Palance.

This is a very nice photograph. The way that you changed the background really makes the butterfly stand out. Great focus and details. Thank you for sharing.

This is so beautiful! You have really captured all the intricate details and colours on its wings. The light background really makes it pop off the page! Well done!

Hi Nieves, nice to see you with this great picture of a butterfly. The butter fly has a fine coloring to it and great shape and form. The pattern on the wings is amazing. Ray

The butterfly is presented in a lovely, simple, and effective manner. Well done. Good luck. I wanted to participate, too. However, a butterfly is not an insect. And hence I did not proceed.

Oh, I think this contest is also for bugs. Thanks for the information and the sweet review. I will recheck the rules of this contest. I thought I've read insects and bugs.

A lovely image of this butterfly against a pale background accentuating its colors. The position and the angle of the shot in the frame is good. I imagine the outlines of the butterfly could be a little sharper.
