Personally, I'm not a fan of the post processing or a lot of noise & grain - but that's just my taste. Good composition though.

Ohhh this is so artsy, like a woodblock print! I like your heavy editing...it works well in this image. I also like your title!

I love this PP. Unfortunately DPC-ers usually don't. Glad you had fun with this one. Beautiful and well done. 8

I think this is beautiful. I hope everyone else does too. I think I have better taste than ability. I would have liked to have created this. Hope your proud of it. 10

Interesting that the 'harsh' processing works so well with a subject as delicate as butterflies. Much better that the butterfly shots I took this week.

i would have removed the grain more on this. I think it takes away from the picture as it causes me to look away from the main subject and stare at it.
