Thanks for the kind words, Wayne.  No, this gear is light enough that I shot hand held, without the monopod.

The first thing I noticed about this Spicebush Swallowtail was that the wings were 
continually fluttering. Nevertheless, I decided that I would get a shot 
anyway.  I had a Pentax 135/3.5 on my Fuji X-T2 with a minimum focus distance 
of about 6 ft., so it was manual focus with the lens wide open. Here is the best 
image:

Best seen LARGE.
Manual focus even. I assume the 3-pod was used. Close manual focus by moving 
works best for me.
Nice capture
