I've tried getting one of these and found it almost impossible to get close enough and catch them holding still for a second. So my hats off to you for managing it. It's well captured. The in focus areas are nice and sharp and where they should be. If I had to improve something I guess it would be that the wings are a bit out of focus. This could be fixed by getting the shot more parallel to the butterfly so that it all fits into the area that's in focus. But as I said it's damn near impossible to get a shot as good as yours, so this is really more theoretical suggestion than a practical one.
