The first picture is amazing.
Beatiful composition with the arc of the green leaf visible through the wings.
Normally I dislike oversaturatet colors (though they are apparently preferred by a lot of modern photographers). But in this case I must admit that they enhance the almost surrealistic effect of the motif.

The last picture has obvious problems with sharpness. Many hairs are only sharp at their base. It could be blurr caused by instability or vibrations in your set-up. Or you could have missed some sharp pictures during exposure or stacking?
Could be interesting to see a sharp picture of this wing.

You asked for it :wink:
