Thanks, Rick. It was all his choice. Many always alight with wings
upright, and stay that way. This one seemed more content with the wings
flat. My biggest problem was getting him with the wings on MY side of
the flower. He generally liked to keep the flower between me and him. :-)

Nice shot, Jim... How do you get the bf to pose like that?

I agree. Had I had time to prepare, I would have chosen a wider lens
opening to hide the background. Maybe next time.

Yes, the vignette definitely helps. If there's anything else that can be
improved about the image it's to simulate a (heresy for macro) shallower
depth of field. Too many sharp looking leaves in the background. The
vignette fixed some but not enough in the brighter bits. But it was good
before too.

Finally had a Tiger Swallowtail spend some time on my Buddleia bush.
The noonday sun was harsh, but I wanted to get a shot anyway.
