'Stained-glass' monarch

Taken at Mason Neck State Park in Fairfax County, Virginia. I just liked how the light was hitting the butterfly’s wings.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Ruffled feathers, posted earlier:

Nikon Z 7 ,Nikkor AF-S 300/4E PF ED VR with FTZ adapter
1/500s f/5.6 at 300.0mm iso160 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
