Dining alone
Since I couldn't find the true name of this butterfly , I've chosen a self-descriptive name for today. Its not my usual tight crop and I just wanted to see what a bit of negative space would do to my insect shots. What say ye, yea or nay?
... so that you will remember when you are old and wise and all wrinkly ... ;) :P
I say yeah, yeah, yeah with regard to colours and the composition on the right side of the picture, but nay when it comes to overall/left side composition. Your pic is half-empty!!! You should have left 1/3 empty ... I think that would have been better ... but after your comment I see your point or understand your intention ... and now on the smaller screen it has a different effect on me also ... now, it is less disturbing ... maybe next time I will check your pics out on the two different screens before I make any comment at all. ;)
The "striped" appearance of the background is really cool and it gives the shot something special, in particular due to the different brown nuances ... and here some sort of a post scriptum as something else came to my mind today: Have you realised that this blurry-striped background creates the feeling of movement while the butterfly and the plant are actually still ... another little special something that makes me like the picture even more ...

You are amazing
That being said , I like this and the contrast with the out of focus background.
