Help in identifying butterfly

This isn't the greatest picture, but it was in an awkward spot in my garden. Its about the size of a Swallowtail, without the tails. I am hoping someone will recognize it.

Your lovely butterfly is the female Great Spangled Fritillary (Speyeria cybele)

Thanks, Kennedy! You always come through for me! I hadn't seen this one in my garden before.
