Zebra Striped Swallowtail

A little PS work to make it pop.

...especially of the tails - better than mine! I think you may have made the overall image a bit too dark, though?

It would have been a nice composition if the swallowtail had been on this side of the stamen/stigma. Alternatively, you could had went around to the otherside.

 

i really like the play of the flower's lines with the swallowtails. if you captured this RAW perhaps you may want to revisit the file and adjust the contrast a tad. I'm sure bengchye loo meant well, but shooting butterflies is a real challenge and walking around to the other side of the flower most often spooks the subject.
