Really nice lines here, Peter. Suggestions: I'd try leaning the stalk to the right a few degrees and removing the wild oat shaft..or whatever that wispy thing is. Also, would remove the leaf tip in the lower left corner. Then perhaps a conservative crop of the right side. I understand if you like the near silhouette butterfly, but I'd have to lighten it and take a look for myself.

Another inch of snow last night, I'm officially tired of winter. So here's a shot from last Fall's Monarch migration. I missed focus by a bit, not that big a bit but. There was one in this sequence with the butterfly in perfect focus, and in a slightly better pose, but also partially hidden by the plant, there was a bit of wind blowing the subject around that day IIRC. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1604247/PESO/PESO%20---%20%20letsdolunch.html Equipment: Pentax K-5II w/vmc Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm f2.8~4.0 (Komine).
