A few commenters asked how I was lucky enough to get three swallowtail butterflies in a single photo. I was laying flat on my back in the bed of my pickup truck below a mimosa tree in full bloom, and the tree was covered with butterflies flitting from flower to flower and all around the canopy.

One is hard enough to get, let alone 3.
Were these actually in flight? If so, I am amazed.

Yours is a fascinating photo. That is a lovely opportunity nature gave you. It's not often you get a fly-by by three butterflies, swallowtails at that. 10.

great shot, but I find the border very distracting

I don't like the border on this picture. It's a little too wide and it pulls away from the subjects.

Very nice catch!

an amazing shot, but there's something odd happening at the leading edge of all the wings.

A boost on color saturation might have been in order?
