Zebra Swallowtails on Butterfly weed 

not one of my best shots ( they never stopped fluttering their wings) but i liked the way it shows both the upper and lower wings. I could have upped the iso but then you have to put up with grain or noise.

yeah, the flowers came in sharp, and most of one butterfly. Most of my butterfly pictures don't come out at all.

I only get to watch the butterflies fly around but never had a chance to get just even one picture of it...at least after I had one taken 11 years ago! Argggh!

Nice shot and I love the pattern of their wings!

I like this a lot. I think its a great action freeze. I just saw the first one of the season. I was near the river and that is the only place in our area to have paw paw trees...til now. janey planted a pair so I am hopeful to see some in the backyard in our declining years.

This is a great shot...to have both in the frame, it is hard enough to get just one!

At least they stay long enough to get a shot, I must be doing something wrong
