Almost as though he posed for you, with that nice background that contrasts so you can even see the antennae.

Or did you go scrambling over rocks and though bushes to get the right angle?  ;D

Very nice, Smokey.

If you have the large version, viewed full size is it nice and clear?  This might be a nice one to do a tighter crop on it to see the detail on the butterfly more.

I really like butterflies.

The little guy sort of followed us along the creek, setteling here and there. This was the only change I got where he stayed long enough to get focused before he flew off again.
