A butterfly for a change. When they hang like this they keep closing and opening the wings slowly.

Long time ago that I've tried, even without wings, to perform such a balancing act Raj, lol.

Thanks for this excellent butterfly image my friend.

Regards, Cornelius.

Most interesting [although presumably accidental:)] angle for this sweet shot, dear Raj. The butterflies are absolutely beyond me as a photographer LOL Only birds beat me worse:) In general almost all nature moves too fast for a steady and well-balanced photographer as the undersigned:) Trees including.
Even snails hide their bodies & "tentacles" too fast at times!

Nothing better or more reliable to pose for one as good old railway station but these have been forbidden to take shots of and I am not even certain what the present laws say in this respect.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I can't imagine a railway station being off limits for photographs, like SAM stated Raj.
I think the butterfly stepped in some glue before he landed on this flower.
Good shot.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.

Marvelous capture of this wonderful find. In full it looks like his long tongue is in the centre of the flower
