This guy landed on my mother's cigarette butt holder (the herb tea container) on a glass table with my Mom wearing a colorful print. Sure makes for a colorful shot!!

Thanks everyone. I think this is a good example of breaking the rules sometimes works. I would normally try to isolate the butterfly and remove distractions like all this vivid color. It just seems to work in these shots without taking too much emphasis off the butterfly. Maybe because of the background of complimentary colors (Red:Green). Not my intention though, just lucky!!
