 This beautiful butterfly landed in front of me on the walk and wouldn't move until I had shot three images and then it flew off, rather smugly I thought. I do not know what kind it is.

Looks too "staged" on that concrete.

Needs a slight rotation. Otherwise, it’s a neat shot. I like the textures.

This is a beautiful butterfly, but the background is kind of busy and takes away from the beauty of it. While butterfiles are not easy to photograph, you can't always pick and choose.

The angle of the camera could be improved and the colors could be enhanced a bit. Good title.

Hand held shot? Or it moved? Great shot against the grey wall.
