This swallow tail was posing on a lily pad near a nice bloom in our pond.  I like the way the colors compliment.  7D2 with 100-400 II hand held very slight fill flash at flash EV -2.

Hi

A nice composition and I like the colours and setting too - a nice image

Might have been worth trying a vertical comp including some more of that reflection


All the best
Matthew

Thanks Matthew, I didn't think of vertical. Good suggestion. I appreciate your input.

What an unusual setting for a swallowtail! A beautiful flower and butterfly - nice one.
