Beautiful! The third photo showing a detailed portrait (from the front) is my favorite.

All beautiful images...very well done!
The final image gets my "favorite" vote. Not often do you get to see a butterfly resting upon a flower and taking a drink.
Nice to see some of the world, which passes us bye, so quickly.
Thank you for sharing these images.

Brian,
A nice set.
I shot one here last week but it was on concrete, against which it did not stand out very well.
El Gato,
Sometimes butterflies just fly past but you can often see them on flowers. If they close their wings they may be less easy to see.
