It's a colourful butterfly alright.

I think your focus is slightly out though (could be resize maybe), seems more on the leaves. Not sure what gear you had with you, but I'd like to of seen this taken closer up/larger maybe with the 135mm OR from a more side on angle that would hopefully negate the grey background in the top RHS.

i like the first one in color better and the third in b&w due to the contrast of the leaf/subject/backround​.
