Hi Scott!
Razor sharp, detailed, well composed. Veins on its wings are perfectly seen, same as details on flower. Very good colours. I've got no idea about ID, sorry!

Hi Scott
You have a true beauty here. The contrast between the red flowers and the brown butterfly against the BG ensures that this photo has real visual impact.
It is a lovely composition with exquisite colours. The DOF is excellent with crystal clear details, the BG is absolutely superb, and the exposure was perfectly managed.
Very well done and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Scott,
Excellent shot on this butterfly, very sharp and superb details,
very nice colours and well composition.
I think this is a "Oleander butterfly", family of NYMPHALIDAE.
Thanks for sharing!

Great capture Scott. The colours are so harmonic and well balanced. The well blurred background really sets the butterfly off in a perfect way. The composition is very good too - personally I might crop out about 1/3 of the space in the top of the picture.
