As you can see here, it's 35mm long:
It was the largest one, of the 4 caterpillars on this very plant!

Excellent shot! Those colors are wonderful. I hope I can find some next year. :-)
RE: that blue flower - I added to my description - very small, the size of my smallest thumbnail perhaps.

Thank you all for your comments and favs!
Indeed, it can still be found on the explore frontpage:
Funny thing: the only time this happened again to me was with "Butterfly catapult", which is another Papilio machaon capture, albeit an adult one :-) Maybe this means I should spend more time with the swallowtails than with the other critters! LOL
This older capture has been kicked out of explore though, from the recent changes in the interestingness algorithm (along with many others of mine), because apparently I had added it to a lot of groups that require mandatory comments... Oh, well, you can't have them all :-)

about papilio machaon you can have in your garden if you plant a ruda, they eat this plant.
si siembras en tu jardin planta de ruda la mariposa rey deshovara en ellas y las larvas se comen las hojas para hacer luego crisalidas y convertirse en belas mariposas. Luego ponen sus huevos sobre las hojas de la planta de la ruda y empieza yun nuevo ciclo.
sembrar planas de ruda y pronto tendreis mariposas rey suerte y felicidades sonunas bellas mariposas k son simbolo de felicidad
