Allen, what a beauty. I am glad the season has started too. The pretty pink flowers are a nice addition to this image. Nice details in both the flowers and the BF. Great find and capture. I can’t think of anything that could improve the shot.
Sensational closeup, Allen. Wonderful.
Allen, this is a nice image. Painted Lady Butterflies are so beautiful and, in my experience photographing them, they tend to move fast. You have a sharp photo with a very nice contrast with the pink flowers and leaves in the background. Those things make the butterfly stand out. It surprised me to see you got this at 1/160s. Were you using a tripod or was it a hand-held capture? Very nice image and sharpness.

Hi Egidio, this was hand held. Thank you for the comment!

Allen, the combination of sharp butterfly and blooms looks great. The contrasting colors work well also.
Allen: Great start to your season here. Wonderful pristine subject and a fine comp. Most excellent. >=))>
Hi Allen,
I like the cluster of flowers that were left intact in your comp. They provide a solid base for the painted lady and provides a fairly strong comp. Well done…Jim
