Balan, you've got this little butterfly nicely sharp in a good set of surroundings.  In the larger view, I can see additional colors in it's eye.  I like the two moderately sharp leaves, with the one pointing in from the corner to the subject.  That adds a nice sense of motion.

Hi Balan,

I especially like how the eye turned out in this species that you were able to photograph.  Most of the species that I have observed all have very dark, featureless eyes.  Comp looks pretty good and you were also able to get athe butterfly focused through a small window in the foliage...........................Jim
