How beautiful. Butterflies are always the trickiest to photograph; but you did a great job. Nice and crisp.

My guess is that it was windy and he got a little breeze up his 'arse. Great shot. One of my absolute favorite things to photograph. But as most people have pointed out, getting a good ain't easy. You've inspired me to put up some of mine from last summer.
