Very very awesome capture. The background isn't distracting at all and the butterfly is so vibrant that it wouldn't matter anyways. I love the composition. I was reading the comments and thought yeah fricken hell she should have won first then saw your comment and that's really cool that you won both. I just cannot get over the vibrant colors of the butterfly they are amazing.

What a neat butterfly! The dullness of the brown and brightness of the green must make it really easy for that little guy to camoflage himself in leaves.
