It's a nice subject and nicely composed - difficult to get anything new or astounding with such subject matter though unless you're a lepidopterist, or whatever manner of person it is that knows about these things. The light is just right for it, but it does seem over-saturated to me, and there seems to be a lot of noise in there among the greenery. I like being able to see the pollen standing out on the butterly's wings.
