This was also taken at the Texas Wildflower Seed Farm in Frederickburg. The butterfly shelter there is very nice and you Caedes friends that can do the marcro miracles with the butterflies would surely have a field day. Thanks for coming by to take a peek at this pretty, I appreciate you all. Anita

The colors are dazzling! Love the spritz of blue on BF herself, and the vibrant new green leaves contrasting brown. What a creative title! lol:)

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau

I really love the different shades of brown, and i agree with cyberbod the green leaves compliment them very well.

Very lovely, Anita. Since his wings are still outspread it appears he hasn't totally settled down so you got him on the move. Great shot.

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel. -Josemaria Escriva

Really beautiful Butterfly Anita. I like the green that he (or she) is perched on. The depth of field is really nice and the frame is a nice touch. Took the colour from the Butterfly didn't you? Real good work.

The name ChuPat is derived from my nickname Chuck and my wife of 34 years name Patti. Her photography will appear on Caedes as well from time to time. I consider myself an advanced amature not anyway close to being a professional. I have just taken photography more seriously since I have switched to digital. My profession has always been associated with pohtography in one way or another. Any criticism I receive will be well appreciated.

Poor butterfly, It looks like it something attacked it's left wing :( This is a good clear shot of a relatively big butterfly with good detail. Good work!!
A butterfly shelter would be heaven for me and my camera ^-^

Great shot on the butterfly. Great colors and sharpness. I think the butterfly is an older one. His wings looks like they had flown for sometime. Great work.

Beautiful shot Anita. I too have been to Fredericksburg and enjoyed all the wonderful sites. It's a great place to "get away" and I hope to return. Once again, beautiful colors and clarity. Thanks for sharing it with us.
