While I'm fine with the cut put variants, I think the butterfly part of the logo art shown does not represent an improvement over the current usage of the literal photo (although admittedly we have squelched it a bit).
I've always liked the photo because it communicates beauty, freedom and authenticity. While the new logo retains the shape, it loses the beauty of the original butterfly in my opinion.
