The third one is perfect because of the way the light enhances the texture of the wing.
Maybe it's just me but the first two also seem noticably blurred from PP. I realize it's a matter of taste as well.

Wonderful Images!!

The first and second look like a Great Spangled Fritillary and the last, and my fav is a Juniper Hairstreak, according to my book.

Excellent series. I like them all, but would choose #3 as my favourite. Love the way the wing colour almost matches the bokeh, making them look almost transparent

Much thanks to all of you for commenting and a special thanks for ID'ing these winged wonders. It was very windy yesterday and I had to take a ton of pics to get a few in focus. --Rick
