This Swallowtail is beautifully portrayed Keith. I love your composition with the ultra close-up of the butterfly - the yellow BG makes the image pop and the small splash of green is a pleasent relief from the warmer tones. Top shot!!!

Beautiful and amazing DOF. I'm a little bothered by the brightness of the yellow background - only because it competes with the butterfly for my attention.
