Papilio eurymedon (Pale Swallowtail)

This is quite an interesting perspective. This is part of the "spray and pray" strategy of photography. I tried using my 400mm, but I couldn't get the focus right. 200 might have been possible.


Altitude: 220m (721 feet)
Camera: Nikon D850
Date: Saturday, June 26th, 2021 at 7:56 PM

With cropping (you see 34% of the image as shot), this lens is effectively a 178mm lens on a 35mm camera
