Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail

This last summer I found myself quite taken with trying to shoot as many butterflies as I could find. We made several trips to butterfly houses, and we had a great trip to Cades Cove in the Smokys where we found a large number of species in abundance. I shot this beauty on a creek bank in Cherokee, NC., when we stopped for an Ice Cream. I have about 50 shots that came out pretty good, so if you see alot of them in the near future you'll know why.
