Cute video Sandi of baby meeting dog, I was sort of expecting something about butterflies. Another great shot of butterflies loving those red blossoms.

I am never surprised to see how well the focus and the colors of your butterfly shot are. All just perfect. I wish you could use a magic wand, and give me your talent. Very ice Sandi.

I like the contrasting butterflies in this one Tigz. You have such good focus and colors.
The video is why I much prefer dogs over cats.

Terrifying video (but cute too). Good shot of two types of butterfly - not an easy event to capture.

Gorgeous capture Sandi.
I've checked-out the link to the 'Baby meets dog' video.
It's wonderful to see the reaction of the baby after the dog did the same as she/he did to the dog.
Thanks!
Regards, Cornelius.

What awesome colors! It's hard to get the butterflies - they move so quickly and don't sit still for long. At ours we're not allowed to use a tripod either.
This video is so precious! It's worth the minute it takes to watch it.

Crystal clear focusing on the stars of this picture combined with great colour and use of DOF makes an altogether wonderful image.
