Have you ever seen the Pink Swallowtail butterfly?—No?
Well, I suppose that’s because there is no such thing.

This photo of a yellow Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail is my one and only experiment with Photoshop ever. You’ll notice by comparing it with the original below that I also de-colorized the ground and sharpened the image a bit. I like how this emphasized the natural circle of light around the butterfly which was filtering down through the leaves above me.
You never know what your creative side will think of next. I wonder what creative possibilities went through the infinite mind of God when He said,
Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.—Genesis 1:24, ESV

But it’s pretty :)
HI Lon Hetrick,
Though its a photoshop. But its looks natural.
