Royalty as in a Monarch! Yesterday I said how I had explored a vacant lot next door to where I work that I had never gone into before. I was saying that it held some very nice photo-ops and beauty I never noticed before. This was one of the things I saw in there. I think this is probably only the 3rd or 4th butterfly I have ever been able to capture on camera. I think this may be my best and I hope you like it too! :)

Super Quality, Dan, and I was just looking back through your gallery and I think this ranks right up there with Little Blue ;) Nicely done, my friend. Congrats. !!! :)

It is nothing less than excellent. You can be very proud of it. Look, how you captured every little detail of butterfly and flower. I am very impressed by your work.

I had to fav this immediately of course! What a great find right in your 'own back yard'. Perfect clarity on this one and I love it on the sunflower.

Great photo. Colors & butterfly seem to jump off the screen. I guess it's only half foofy if I understand correctly.

Hi, my Danny Cowboy...

What a wonderful find...I am sure glad you investigated this unknown field full of great photo opportunities... because you found one here and I really do like this...and you are so right...capturing butterflies is a real trick Dan...

I think I was able to trick two of them.... in a lifetime. to pose for me...;o) This image is so full of yellow and beauty my friend...I can't help but think...that this is perhaps one of the best butterfly photos...I have seen....

In fact...I think that I remember you once saying that your favorite color was yellow....did I remember right Dan....? A very nice job...now then...we should compare our butterflies as Russ and I do our bees....LOL! Do you think that South Dakota butterflies are better than Michigan's...teasing....LOL!

Dan...thank you so much for your visit to my recent post...I appreciate it very much...and all past support and attention you have given my work.....I am deeply grateful...as seeing your pleasant face on my page....well....it just makes me happy..... Thank you!

Marilyn
