PJ, I like it, and I like II, but for that one, I would have preferred
a square crop, cutting off the bottom.

The light background, almost overexposed, does a nice job highlighting
the butterfly.

Out of the three in the Monarch series, I personally like this one
(III) better especially for its background.  In the other two there
are some thorns which bother me.

However in number I, the backlighting pops the orange in the
butterfly and it would have been lovely to have it on number III as
well.

What if you crop number III to a square format, dropping the bottom?

Ciprian.


P.S.:  A minor nitpick about the HTML of your PESO:  on my laptop
display (900px in height), even with the browser in full screen mode,
none of the pictures fit into the screen.  A simple solution to that
is to simply add a style=max-height:80vh; to the `img` element in
your HTML, and now the image will be at most 80% the height of the
browser window (actually the viewport, which is the inside of the
panel where the HTML is displayed.)
