Description
I felt like one of those pro nature photographers, wading through piranha infested waters through some deep, dark jungle... In actual fact though, instead of a river, it was a pool and instead of some jungle, it was my back yard

Lovely shot mate, it came out nice and sharp. I also like the shadow the butterfly casts as well as the blurry background where the colours mix together.

Nice shot
Reminds me of this camera trick that I thought you might be interested in; I tried but I don't have the patience lol
You take your lens off teh camera and just hold it in place, backwards, and it becomes a kind of macro lens. I've done it with my 400D and its a bit of a pain to get a nice sharp shot ... but the result is just amazing. Here's someone who did it well: [link] (actually this shot made me actually give it a try but I'm too lazy to do well at it lol)

Thanks Jono. Yeh, actually an easier way is to get a reversing ring and mount a lens backwards on the end of whatever lens you already have. Best to get an older lens that actually has an aperture ring so you can keep it open
