Another shot from the other day at the Calendar Gardens, thought I would toss in a different butterfly posting for you.

O.B. passed this message onto me from Cornelius, so thought I would share it with you.

a dear and close family member passed away unexpectedly last Wednesday. That's the reason for my suddenly absence on Caedes. The burial will be on Monday, so I hope to be back on Tuesday.If you think it's wise, please add this information as a PS to one of your narratives. If so, thanks in advance. Best regards, Cornelius*****

Thank you for commenting. Tigs♥ =^..^=

On the last image I commented that it couldn't get any better. Now I am not so sure Sandi. I think this one is just as good or even better. Fabulous shot with such great colours.

It seems this Monarch chose the flower to complement its beautiful colours. Splendid shot Sandi.
Thoughts are with Cornelius.

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
