Wow! Nice shot! The background is not distracting at all, in fact the leaves formed an attractive pattern and help to tell where the butterfly is.

Thanks ziploc, I learned something new. Now i know that not all background is distracting, it too have it's use in bring out the subject. I alway thou a plain background is most preferred in macro shots.

Nice! You got the entire butterfly focused. Thou i prefer backgrounds to be more bokeh, but rest assured that your background is still ok! Keep it up.
