Old World swallowtail
On my holiday in greece I was able to take some pictures of this beautiful butterfly. The Old World Swallowtail butterfly is not that exoctic and also lives here in Austria but it was one of the few colorful butterflies I found there. I think it has such beautiful colors and I am always amazed on how colorful and beautiful nature is.
I was a little bit unhappy that I didn't take my Macro lens with me on the holiday but I am pretty happy about the results with my new Nikon Kit Lens, it produces some really great pictures. And I am considering buying some more Z-mount lenses in the future, but for now I have to adapt the other lenses with the Nikon FTZ Adapter so I can use them on my Full Frame Z-mount Camera. I have to admit this also works really good.

Your photos are simply incredible. Even without the macro lens that you forgot, the butterflies look very beautiful. Thank you very much for your feedback.
