Dear Robber uncle : Lucky to get this one...that gave 30 sec. for taking position and shooting. Extension tubes loaded so could not move back for the full body coverage. I was kneeling down, my tripod was high, took both the hands around the tripod and took support like a third hand :-)

My first half decent shot of a swallowtail, Can do better ;-)
