A nice, clear, crisp, capture. The caveat is that the plant-life is more in focus than the butterfly; but I'm sure it was an opportunistic picture, so I'm sure you're lucky to have the picture this nice.

To my eye,the butterfly is just as clear as the surrounding greenery, but I think that the butterfly's colors are so intricate and, after all they do tend to try to hide themselves from predators, even with all that light yellow, he somehow manages to blend in at the ground level, or perhaps it's just that the plant life is just too naturally saturated and detracts one's eye from the lighter colors here ...so I'm thinking since you took such a nice clear pic of the subject, why not, if you have a software program to do this with, take the butterfly out of the pic and then blur out the background on another layer, and see if this helps to make Tiger stand out more when you put him back in...and in the meantime you might want to move him around a little for extra interest, athough I think he's placed well enough in the take itself..well, it couldn't hurt to try, and these little guys are so hard to capture, it seems like it would be worth the effort. My two cents' worth :)PJ
Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.
