Another posting of that beautiful butterfly.

Canon 40D, canon 70-200mm f 4/L lens with 13mm macro extension tube was used.

Used a touch of topaz lens effects, and adjust 5 in my editing.

I thank you for your comments my friends.

Think it isn't aware of its beauty, else you had to pay for its posing, lol.

Great one again, Sandi.

A beautiful capture. The blur of the background really helps bring out the sharp details of the butterfly.
