Heya Murtada and welcome to ThePhotoForum.
Nice butterfly, good focus on it, nice shallow depth of field.
To your (photographic) disadvantage, the sliced pineapple rings are all so much brighter than your butterfly, which makes the background a lot brighter than your subject, and that takes away from your subject a little. Having observed this, I still don't know what you could have done differently (other than using flash somehow in order to fill in the missing light on the butterfly) to get both pineapple slices and butterfly exposed JUST right... let the experts on macro photography come...
