I like how nice the sharp and natural colors from this butterfly appear in this capture. The details of the markings are standing out well. The shape of the flower stands out nicely too and the depth is great.

This is a beautiful swallowtail butterfly posed perfectly on this butterfly bush. The colors and detail are very well presented here giving us a wonderful picture with depth and interest.
The deep purple is very dramatic and further highlights the beautiful butterfly. Best of luck in the contest.
