A photo taken from a slight angle above of a swallowtail butterfly resting on a red spider lily at Sakura Tsutsumi Park

This photo was taken at Sakura-tsutsumi Park, capturing a swallowtail butterfly perched on a red spider lily from a slightly elevated angle. By adjusting the viewing angle slightly, I composed the shot so that both the butterfly’s wings and the red spider lily’s petals are beautifully visible.
