    Colors are great. Really beautiful shot.

    To say something critcal, you start to lose focus on the top of the wings. But overall that's minimally distracting to me.

    Re: Spring has sprung

    Very good, Danny. I like how the wings, while overlapping still are just aligned so we can see the outline edge of both especially at the bottom. While the head of the butterfly is not quite sharp, the flower which it is standing on is as well as the legs and most of the wing areas, so it really works well nonetheless.
    Good color and angle. I would suggest cropping in from both sides to about a 5x7 or 8x10 aspect. Eliminate the bit of flower coming in from the upper left corner as well as bringing the subject in a bit closer.

    Incredible color and contrast. Works very well, though you might consider cropping off some of the right side. Nice work
