this picture seems a bit flat to me. Have you tried adjusting the brightness/contrast, the saturation and/or levels? It would be great if it weren't so dark.

The vignette effect is a bit too heavy, it takes away from the beauty of the butterfly, but the subject matter is still gorgeous.

I wouldn't want to see any more of the background. I like the fine detail in both the bird and the angled grass. Good composition all round.

I agree with ade. This is a nice shot but it doesn't really give a "lonely" feel to it. If you want to depict the bench as being lonely, try adding a blue cast to the entire photo (or reshoot with a different subject). Also, try straightening the image so that the bench runs parallel to the horizon. All the best!

this photo is waay too muddy, yo need to increase contrast or do something so the photo isn't so flat! There is too much dark gray in the photo, and not enough variance in from you darks to lights.
