The Viceroy is a new one to me, but it looks like one of the large ones such as swallowtail. Very nice image. I see you really have been saving those special ones! Nice colors. It's sort of nice seeing them at this time of year..at least on TN.

Viceroy is an interesting name for this different looking butterfly, Claude.
Very good open wing capture.
The sharpness is excellent and the colors quite vital.
TFS and regards.

salut Claude
une superbe composition en macrophoto,
les couleurs sont très belles avec une bonne densité,
il y a un superbe contraste dans les couleurs
entre le papillon et son arrière-plan,
l'angle de vue et le cadrage sont exceptionels

Bonjour Claude, encore une fois une très belle photo. Les couleurs, encore une fois! L'asclépiade est une plante fascinante: quand tu la brises, un liquide laiteux coule. Chaque année, des chenilles de monarque viennent sur l'asclépiade au jardin et je sacrifie la plante aux chenilles.
Merci pour cette photo, une bouffée d'été et de belle lumière franche. Très belle composition.

Nice work keeping the butterfly parallel to the sensor so it is all in sharp focus. Color is well saturated and looks natural.

splendidly rich colours and details on this perfectly presented Viceroy on milkweed. Very well decribing butterfly and habitat, and a wonderful, powerful image of summer.
Thank you!

Hello Claude,
A superb image, absolutely beautiful. Excellent composition and the focus is spot on. No complaints regarding this photo.
However, I think you might want to double-check your ID of the flower, as it is definitely not an Asclepias, the flowers are all wrong for that genus, looks like something in the Eupatorium genus, probably one of the Joe Pye Weeds.
