What a terrific shot, Christian!! I love the mix of light and dark greens in the background. And the sharpness and framing of the butterfly are flawless, IMHO.
Wonderful photo. Now, off to look at the Cicadas...
thanks, frank

First the PAW:

A quick grab while on a walk around the lake with the wife and daughter
yesterday.
And more cicadas. Shot on the same walk:

My wife thinks they're cute. She thinks they have a friendly "happy" look about their faces. Especially this one:

which decided to crawl up my leg while I was photographing its brood-mates.
Then again she's from Australia and most creepy-crawlies there will kill you...
