[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A ''Swollow tail'' buttertfly, IMO on of the most beautiful betturfly in the world.

I took the picture near my house in the park, I walked in the sand and I saw this buttertfly so I chased him until it stopped for a short rest, I had my old and faithful film camera with the 70-300 lens so I took the picture from a long distance so it will not run away. I took long and big steps to get closer and cloaer to him.
And you can see what I photographed:).

Nikon N80 (Film camera)
Macro mode
Lens: Sigma 70-300

PS work: levels+ contrast+ color ballance+ USM+ Crop.
Also used NI to clear the pic.

Ido, a colorful and nice photo. The butterfly is very beautiful, and your image has an excellent sharpness.

The "chasing" was worthwhile.

Nice Swollow tail, Ido.
A not easy to take when the subject is little and on the ground. We have a similar sort here. See.
