This last week has tried my patience, to say the least. I'm happy to say that today marked the end of that particular source of antagonism. Throughout the week I kept thinking about getting out and taking pictures, but just could not find the time to do it. With beautiful weather today and free of the week's "fun", I took some time to head outside and try and grab some pictures. As is common with being outside, I saw plenty of interesting subjects, but I wasn't finding much that I could get decent pictures of. This Zebra Swallowtail came fluttering by and offered a nice opportunity.
