C&C?

[Emmy7]

Hello again! I really enjoy having people critique my pictures. Any ideas for this one? Yes, the focus is terrible and I used the wrong lens but oh well.

Nice, I like it!

Don't worry about focus...

You can still have a winner even if blurred. Look at this gem from Mary Ellen Mark. Yours is sharp as hell compared to hers.

You cropped this down, correct? Did you crop off the tip of the butterfly on the right, or did you miss it in the camera? The colors seem a little tiny touch desaturated (I'd guess from shooting mid day?), but some people actually like that look. The tip of the right wing being cut off to me is the only thing that's really 'wrong' with it, IMHO.

Other than that, it's a fairly pedestrian image, but there isn't anything wrong with normal boring images starting out.

Actually, I was kind of rushing to get the picture because the butterfly was about to move, so that's why the tip is cut off. And I edited it to be bright and vivid. Thank you for your feedback!
