This was taken today in my Insect Studio, or my backyard, whatever you want to call it. I will have to number these since I will be posting many of them. You have to photograph these now before there wings get all tore up. Hope you enjoy.

Minimal battle damage on this beauty. She definitely appears to be strutting her stuff for you. Wonderful capture, Gregg.

A NOTE TO ALL MY FRIENDS: I WILL BE COMMENTING LESS ON PEOPLE IN MY “FRIENDS” LIST SO AS TO MAKE TIME FOR VIEWING ALL “NEW IMAGES” AND ENCOURAGING OTHER PEOPLE OF WHOM I MAY NOT KNOW OR ARE NEW TO THE SITE. I WILL STILL VIEW EVERY IMAGE OF MY FRIENDS AND STILL COMMENT ON SOME IF I CAN GIVE A GOOD CRITIQUE OR MENTION WHAT I LIKE OR FEEL IS REALLY WORKIN’ WELL IN THE IMAGE. AS FAR AS MY IMAGES IF YOU HAVE A COMMENT ON HOW I CAN IMPROVE AN IMAGE I REALLY WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THAT SO AS TO LEARN AND BETTER MYSELF.

This is superb especially as you can see nearly every hair on the butterfly's back. Lovely colour, clarity and composition. Well done!

Very nice, Gregg. You do such wonderful work. I'm going to look forward to your butterfly series. If it's half as good as this, we're going to be in for a real treat!

Good thing you got this guy before the extremity of the other tail disappeared!

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?
