USA June 2020 Southern California .-This Western Tiger Swallowtail butterflies striking yellow color compliments the pink bougainvillea. This butterfly is found in the summer months. I attempted to photograph this butterfly for a week. I love the result of this photo with contrasting color, motion blur on the wings and unobstructed photo of the beautiful butterfly that resulted in a strong composition. I did edit the background in Lightroom by burning the background to bring more attention to the butterfly.No edit to the color that is mother nature's work.
