Plush Swallowtail - _TNY_6882
The emerald peacock (Papilio palinurus), also known as the green-banded swallowtail, is a rather gorgeous species I sometimes find at the Haga Ocean butterfly house.
Here, I've shot one using a (diffused) flash instead of the regular non-flash but on tripod setup.
Not really sure why, but this particular one makes me think of a plush toy somehow.
For a shot of the same one, but with the wings open, please have a look here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53707671198/
