Hi jk
They are all beautifully exposed and composed. However I would like to see more zone of sharpness in the butterflies. You don't mention the aperture settings used, but I suspect they are large. The depth of field(zone of sharpness) is determined by the aperture size AND distance to the object. With close up shots, you are pretty close to the object and the zone of sharpness is very narrow so you can afford to use a small aperture to get the sharpness in the object AND still have an out of focus background.
