The first small wildflowers and butterflies of spring. Straight from camera, no post processing. The butterfly has about a one and a half inch wingspan.
I like it. Very joyful. Did you chase him around or lie in wait for him to arrive?

Beautiful butterfly and pleasing saturated colours. For me the image would be improved slightly if the DOF was a little larger as the flower the butterfly is resting on seems not quite pin-sharp. However that's being picky. Makes me wish I was a butterfly with nothing to do but sip nectar all day... :)
Beautiful shot...very nice detail in the wings. IMO the background may have been cropped, and the frame is more of a distraction to me than an enhancement. If you wish to keep a frame then perhaps another color? Neat looking butterfly.
