Been dieing to get butterflies to come around my flowers
and this is the best I can get?

Momma Nature is so cruel.
Enjoy your life, it's the only one you get.

    Can't see the uglyness in the butterfly. Great capture!

    Thanks for sharing,

    Nope, I think it is quite handsome/pretty. Nice perch and detail!

    EEEk, I had no idea that is what butterflies looked like up close eek7.gif I can't wait to show my kids in the morning :D

    but such a beautiful picture, the colors all fit so perfectly together ... yellows, browns, greens, and oranges ... takes me back to a lazy, summer day sipping cold drinks on the wraparound porch and watching life do its thing. Not many bug and flower pics do that for me lol.

    Momma Nature sure did good on that butterfly to give her such a handsome wingspan, all things considered!
