Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Battus philenor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - Pipevine swallowtail (Battus philenor)
Reason
My first good butterfly picture (unless you count this one). The wings are damaged and the tips are not in focus. Lighting is good although not completely natural looking due to the flash. Encyclopedic value is decent, although other (lower-quality) images of this species/pose exist on Commons. Composition is good.
