18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Richmond Birdwing Butterfly

I was new to photography and was at the Butterfly house at the Melbourne Zoo. I saw this butterfly and kept tying to take a photo but my lens kept fogging up. Just as i was leaving i turned and saw it finally sitting still and grabbed a photo and hoped it would turn out alright
