Description
This emerald swallowtail really was this green, I added no saturation at all, only a bit of sharpening and framing. It is native to southeast Asia. The moth I posted and the few butterflies I have to post were captured at a special exhibition of hundreds of exotic butterflies in a rain forest conservatory. It was a first time experience for me, and amazing to see so many in one place flying about in a protected enclosure. Thanks very much for your views and comments.

I think it's been covered in fairy dust. A most beautiful butterfly and an excellent macro.

You got good light on this to preserve the strong dusting effect on the wings. Excellent color and compo.
