    Seb,

    I like your use of depth of field. Nicely blurred background. You might want to consider cropping out some of the brighter areas, then tend to draw my eye away from the butterfly.

    Would fill flash have helped? Maybe to lighten up your subject and darken the background a little? I don't know.

    Yep, this is nice. As Jo said, a crop might help. I would keep the dark green background and slightly burn some of the edges where appropriate. I like the overall sharpness and DOF. Good job!

    Cheers,
