Great shot! Are you lucky enough to have these in your garden-we see them in butterfly exhibitions. They are also hard to shoot as they move all the time and are so big!
No, I’m definitely not that lucky – I was in Cairns and I visited a very large butterfly farm at Kuranda and of course, they had a lot of these flying around – but gosh they were fast!
They also had the gorgeous Ulysses butterflies, but they were too fast for my camera!
