Photoshoot session with the Great Mormon

Great Mormon ( Papilio memnon)

Had a most interesting time photoshooting the Great Mormon butterfly today.  It is a large butterfy with exotic colours in deep ink-blue, stripes and dots included.  It was having a joyous time at the yellow ixora shrub, obviously trying to have a morning sip of its nectar.  It doesn't often drop by at the park and today's photoshoot session was an opportunity not to be missed.  Below are some more delightful captures....
