[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Lime butterfly (Papilio demoleus) is one of the most common and widely distributed swallowtails around the world. It is a frequent mud-puddler and often a number of them can be seen puddling in wet soil and rapidly beating their wings. The butterfly's host plants are mostly citrus species like lime and orange.

Subhrojyoti, this is a very good shot. Lacks good sharpness though. You would probably get better results shooting these kind of shots with a true macro lens. Always use a tripod and a remote shutter release. Thanks for commenting on my fly shot. I did not use a flash on my fly photo. Natural light. Thanks, Bill

Witaj Subhrojyoti,
pięknie uchwyciłeś tego motyla.
Pazie są płochliwe i latają szybko, trudno więc jest takiego złapać - moje gratulacje.
Ładnie widać rysunek na skrzydłach. Myślę, że zwyczajem motyli potrząsał skrzydełkami dlatego końcówki są trochę nieostre.
Best wishes
Alina
