I created this nature photo of a Yellow Eastern Swallowtail Butterfly on red flowers during mid-summer of 2015. Butterflies are a very challenging Insect to get good images of because normally, just as you are about to click the shutter button they fly away. Normally they land on a flower or bush only a few feet away to tempt you again.
