I like this photo alot as it's very interesting and I feel I'm looking at a rare and exotic butterfly, but I find that the harsh lighting has made a for some dark and hard edged shadows to the left and below the main subject. Using fill light possibly would have helped that and improved the color rendition as well.

Beautiful color ! The light is great. No washout/overblown color. Really well done. The texture of the soft wings against the rock is nice :)
