The first one is spectacular. How big, or small, was the butterfly in the first photo?

Where did you get the photo of the 1st butterfly? Absolutely beautiful.
The other photos we have seen at a butterfly show...but never seen the red one.

The first 2 were taken at the Omaha Zoo Butterfly house. The third I took while walking through Fontenelle Forest, just outside of Omaha.
