And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

Jim - A real nice close up of this butterfly. The lighting gives a translucent look to the upper section of the wings. Thad

A very beautiful butterfly. It looks like it could do camouflage against that tree.

I love the blue morphos and I know how hard it is to capture them on the blue side, but that's their nature; their beauty is veiled by their need to survive and I think that is a phenomenal thing. He's very pretty this side too and this is a very fine capture.

You got more photos then you can shake a stick at JimboB. This one is especially good. Your clarity is phenomenal. Excellent work and how are the Jasper and the boys treating you now that you have completely turned?

Can see that this one must have been taken in the Butterfly House in Whitehouse, Ohio, lol.
Wonderful details in this one Jimbob. Very good B-post again.

Great composition and you show the detail of the brown side really well. I'm amazed at the difference between the inner and outer surfaces of their wings.

The focus and clarity of this one I do think is the best yet. A wonderful capture and #34! Show off! :) I remember I took a 3 hr. drive this past year to see the largest butterfly exhibit, and came back with 1 image that was decent to use.

This one is a real beauty Jimbob. The colours are strong and one can see that the wings are coated with pollen. Very nice!
