Butterflies (Critique welcome!)

[Wainscottweasel]

So these are two pictures of butterflies on a bush called a "Schmetterling Fleider" Critique is very much welcome and wanted.

Nice colors. but a bit light for me. And, especially in #2, too much empty space.

I prefer the first photo because the butterfly on the bush is nicely centered. In the second photo, the butterfly is a little too far to the right and the light in the background is somewhat distracting.

Thank you for your advice!

Sharper for #1 and they should definately be exposed better. #2's exposure probably could be fixed with some photoshop. Darken it up and repost.
