The first picture is very beautiful. I think you used a partial sharpening on the butterfly, that makes it apart from the flower bachground. I like that.

the first was shot at f1.4 or f2. there is no partial sharpening there, only a slight bit on the entire image. thanks for the comment though

I adore butterflies and really like the color versions. They're all lovely.
