A Black Swallowtail I came across. He was very jumpy so this image was taken with a 70 - 300 lens at full zoom. That affected the DOF a bit but it still works - I hope -

Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’?

oh yeah, it works for me! :-) nice to see you chap :-) lovely rich colours here on the butterfly, and the background looks good too, i like the splash of colour from the flower also.

Fanciful flapper and I like the DOF!! Perhaps a little crop 'n' chop to loss a little on the left so it doesn't distract from the flier. Nice colours throughout!!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

I've been chasing one of these around! The flit around a lot so catching a shot like this isn't easy. You did a great job!
