Hi Ashok,
This is a beautiful butterfly and it shows well against the dark rock. Your workshop improved the image IMO. You made good choices. I like the butterfly filling the frame to see better the beautiful details. The added contrast possibly brought out more detail. I'm not sure if I see noise in the original but the noise removal didn't hurt. You did well with exposure here and focus also. TFS
