What a gorgeous shot. I could stare at this all day! Oops - but I gotta go watch some great niece and great nephew so stop tempting me with all these pretty pics! ;)
teeni,
Thanks! Clicking on the picture will take you to a larger image on my photoblog. I even included it’s story. This butterfly was a willing participant. Of course as I took the picture and gazed at it’s eyes I thought, “I can only imagine what I would capture with a macro lens”. Sighs I’ll always have next spring/summer. ;-)
Thanks Butterfly for being such a sweet little model. :razz:
Yen,
Thanks! I enjoyed your orchids. They made me think of mine.
Natalie,
Thanks! This butterfly was a willing model. I could not believe how close it let me get. Then again I’ve always found these butterflies to be very curious and social. :-)
Beth,
Thanks and thanks for commenting on my photoblog. :-)
Jackie,
Thank you! I really liked this picture.
And Miles To Go…,
I am! Thanks! The butterfly was a fantastic model. :-)
You took such a beautiful photo. I wonder what kind of butterfly it is?
The macronutrient is PROTEIN. We were at in-service today and one of our sped teachers is a dairy farmer. He told me. Some farmers feed corn silage because the cows will give more milk with grain and/or corn. But it is rough on the cows and they may not live as long as they would with hay and grasses. (I hope I got this right. I didn’t take notes!)
incognito,
Thanks! I’m a neophyte also. I love photography and am always snapping photos and recently I’ve started reading books on the subject.
Megan,
Thanks! This was a sweet little butterfly it was patient as I took it’s pictures.
lutchi,
I use a Nikon D80. I’ll be by to visit your photo.
Andree’,
I’m curious what type it is also. I see this type often and they are extremely curious. It had not problem with me taking numerous shots of it.
Aha! Thanks for letting me know and now that you mention this I do remember hearing this talk before. We visited a dairy farm in grade school. :-)

Makes me wish spring is here again.
And I was still a little child chasing after butterflies instead of hustling to make a living :)

That is a beautiful photo. You know I rarely see butterflies round here these days. In fact I think I’ve only seen one this year.

I’m very sorry; I’ve mixed up the posts. In fact, my comment above is for PhotoShow: 100 Meters. Can you move my comment there? Thanks.
Obviously, I like this photo, too :lol:
