Very nicely composed- a pleasing bokeh in the background.

Really a wonderful image. Beautiful details on the butterfly and flowers, very nice also the background.

Beautiful image, Yun. I personally prefer this shot with the softer background rather than the hi-key one.

+1.  I also like the bokeh of the background in this one.  Beautiful composition.

The monarch and the perch look great, the background is lovely.
