You have got to love that bokeh! I didn't think my camera lens was capable of creating such pleasing bokeh. Well I'm sure compared to even mid-range SLR glass it's still pretty poor, and it does have some strange lines and angles to it, but I still think it looks really interesting.
As for the butterfly, it's pretty cool too. Stayed dead still for ages, I was practically touching it with my lens whilst taking this. Oh that reminds me - cheap-ish close up filters? What a waste of time. The AF gets confused and I'm damned if I'm going to use a crappy electronic viewfinder for close-up focussing. So the filter wasn't out long before it got put back in the bag again.

I really like this and "Standing High". Excellent stuff.
Also shows how Spring comes ealier in some parts of the country than others. Not seen any butterflies round here yet.
Very detailed macro shot. I like close-ups like this because I always have a hard time getting them just right. But you did a great job in this pic. How's he holding on?
Nogger - I was in an indoor butterfly farm!
Dav'd - I'm not sure how butterflies hold on in this kind of position. They must have litle hooks on their feet. It's not a lot of effeort for them anyway because this guy was there for ages.
