My second attempt, as I was pleading with it to "Stay, awe, Sta-ayy, just a little bit longer. Please Please Please!" :) Thanks in advance! - Patty

Thanks for starting my day off with a smile Patty. Ah, the powers of persuasion. So glad it listened for you to be able to take this beautiful photo. Your framing compliments it very well.

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unawares
Be careful, Patty, or you might just get hooked on butterfly hunting! (For anyone who's wondering, this lovely creature is an Eastern Black Swallowtail.)

Well, you bagged this one quite nicely. Beautiful butterfly. Is this what is referred to as a Swallowtail? Lovely capture and congrats.

Beautiful capture of a beautiful butterfly. Did you take this on free hand or with a tripod. I saw in the exif that you use 300mm. If so you did a fantastic work. Even if you use a tripod it is fantastic :))

First you plead for them to "Land" ... then you plead for them to "Stay" ... then being a Caedes nut you ask it nicely to "stop opening and closing it's beautiful wings" and then CLICK ... Nothing to it ... RIGHT ? Yeah RIGHT ! :o) Great capture of this beautiful jewel ... Patty ... even if it was a piece of cake. Did I hear you say " Oh John ... SHUT UP !!!? Sheesh ... watta grouch.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
Beautiful capture. The framing really adds a lot and brings out the blue in the little guy's wings. The butterflies in CA are not nearly so interesting.

Thanks to all who comment on pictures in my gallery. Please accept my apologies if I am unable to thank you each time, and please don't feel obligated to thank me for my comments.
Thanks, everyone! And Mariana, this was taken on a tripod, using a remote switch, me standing away from the camera so I couldn't shake it if I tried, holding my breath, then gently touching the switch!! This is too much WORK! :)) I was inches away and he only flapped his wings once that I saw. I was inside a Butterfly Exhibit at my local zoo. And no John, I wouldn't say that to you - you're a dear!

It's all about perspective and perception.
Oh what a lovely swallowtail. They don't appear to be as common as the yellow ones. He actually remained in front of your tripod? Wow, there must have been some treat there that he was interested in. Very lovely shot.

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.
-Josemaria Escriva
Patty, you captured this butterfly in the most perfect pose. The framing sets off the colors of the butterfly beautifully. Excellent shot & congratulations.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
Congratulations Patty! What a cracker! I have never seen such a butterfly, not in Europe... Outstanding capture. I must admit you are professional: tripod, remote switch... The result is definitely great.

You do not have to thank me if I leave a comment on your image...unless you really want to. ..It is my pleasure to comment on your beautiful work.
I think butterflies are one of the most beautiful of God's creation! So many different and amazing varieties. I'm so glad this one stayed for you to capture and share with us. I love the framing, too.
