[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It seems the swallowtail butterfly though I am not well informed about butterfly's name.
It was able to be taken to have stopped coming and going in a yellow flower on this day though there was rarely a chance to be able to take in the photograph because the butterfly was early movement, and was always often flying about.
I took it the cloudy weather before it rained.

(p.p)
- Crop right/left side a little
- Sharpen the outline
- Add the contrast a little

Hi Mikio,
This is a nice composition with beautiful specie! Tones of colors are very nice and so are those flowers. High ISO has created noise and you have dust spots on your captor. I did a little workshop to illustrate my comment. Also, I would maybe have used a faster shutter speed and bigger aperture to freeze the movement well. Anyway, it remains a beautiful picture. Thanks,
Claudine

Hello Mikio, what an aerial feeling in thisp picture and I might sound cliche but it contains the aesthetic of Japanese art, beautiful and pure. Thank you!

Hi Mikio,
Well balanced image, very delicate image of this butterfly. The shallow depth of field brings emphasis on the subject well. Good colours and sharpness is fine. It seems to have some elements of an oriental painting. TFS. Murray.

PS Enjoyed your introduction with philosophical comments.
