This was the original. I was at a butterfly exhibit, and this is one of the few that turned out. Most of the time the butterflies kept moving from place to place as soon as you tried to photograph them. Here is another one that I took.

I really love the first one! The colors are wonderful and I love the composition too! Butterflies can be difficult to capture! Congrats on a wonderful capture!!

Here is one of my better butterflies. I don't have a macro lens, so this was taken with my 55-200vr.

rikkersc,
If I had to choose, second one is colorful in a different way, especially nice yellow-tipped antennae, and rolled-up proboscis is so "butterfly." Good job.
