Beautiful. The wings seem to glow.

Viceroys used to be common here, but I haven't seen one lately.

Beautiful specimen David. I don't see to many of these and they are usually pretty rough.

Really nice image David - great contrasts, color, comp and light. Too bad Ronnie set up in your tripod holes again, but he'll do anything for the shot (surprized he hasn't knocked you down or wrestled you for position yet :biggrin: ). My only nit/recommendation is to remove parts of the grass and dew above the wings.

Kudos :toast:

It is like a stained glass window. I would be very tempted to move the camera closer...after taking this one, of course.
