Absolutely gorgeous! This is one of the best butterfly pictures I have seen, and I have seen alot of them! This is going into my favourites! Excellent capture.
This is very pretty. The colors of the butterfly work surprisingly well with the pink flowers. There is a bit of blurr on the top of the wings but it seems to suggest the butterfly still may be in motion, it doesn't take away from the picture in any way. Very nice.
What beautiful rich colors on the wings. This one seems to have a very long body.. I like his positioning on the flowers. The entire composition is a little different from the usual butterfly capture. Those blooms which have opened up as opposed to those who are still in the process makes for a delightful array of texture and color. Very nice work.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

Come, my friends,
'tis not too late to seek a new world. Push off, and sitting well in order smite the sounding furrows; for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset, and the baths of all western stars, until I die.
Tennyson, "Ulysses"
