This was taken in 2003….This was taken with my minolta on film In my grandmothers garden…She asked me to take some pictures of some of her flowers..and this is the picture that I gave her…..She was pleasantly suprised to hsee her garden visitor as well..

To this day this has remained one of my favorite picturesm as well as a top seller…

This is also a tiger-striped swallowtail butterfly…
