I resisted the urge to rotate this image. This is the way I shot it and he liked hanging, what appeared to me to be, upside-down. I don't imagine that gravity exerts very much force on a delicate creature such as this so he can hold on quite easily.

Very beautiful butterfly shot. I like the upside-down look to it, it adds interest. Great colors and details.

Another beauty Cindy.
I think it is remembering how it hung in its chrysalis :)
