Lovely capture. Great colors in your dof. I've been snapping these guys on the buddleia and find the variability in their coloring interesting... the amount of blue or shade of yellow, etc. That this didn't do better is evidence of the current butterfly backlash. Or, as I heard mentioned on The Simpsons, the Farfalle Vendetta ;-)

Nice butterfly shot - although the wings are more a pale yellow than a gold.

Excellent colors and clarity but the title makes the photo fit the challenge. Its a Tiger Swallowtail not golden but an extremely nice capture. Well done and good luck in this challenge.
