    Did you go to a butterfly garden? These are great but I esp love the last one…………I like how he matches, lol (I’m a little anal like that, think it’s the virgo in me, lol!) Gorgeous!

  2. This is summer…lovely graphic designed butterflies and great warm colored flowers…a good shot from a patient photographer.
    (My patience would surely increase, if I had a Nikon in my hands ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. Yay! They are all beautiful ๐Ÿ˜€

    I think I like the second best. The top one’s fun, the last one is bold, but the middle one is…pretty! ๐Ÿ™‚

  6. Those doggone things can be a real challenge to photograph! Great job.

    BTW–I had a b&w shot of a monarch chosen for the cover of a little poetry book called Ripe Again by Rachel Bunting.

  12. Oh, pretty and colorful. I’m not a huge fan of flower photography but, mix it a beautiful butterfly or some other critter, I’m there.
