As I was leaving Bankhead National Forest I saw this lovely butterfly on the side of the road. Whipping out the point and shoot and fired several shots before it flew off into the forest. I really didn't have any time to compose a perfect placement of the butterfly but I'm happy with this and the other wide open wingspread shots that I managed to capture. I'm glad I got the natural surroundings that it was interested in. Most likely by now these wild weeds have paled from this beauty...or not who knows...it's only been a week.

Very beautiful butterfly ...
One does not see such colours too often.
The flowers are just thistle. Who would I be not to know that...? After all my middle name is Eeyore. LOL

Frank, the focus is spot on my friend, for a quick on the spot shoot, you did this so darn well! Other than the comp, it is a beautiful capture. I really like this image, lovely.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

The photograph's come out extremely well for a hurried shot, well done Frank.

This is a good shot, Frank! So beautiful. The thistle behind him helps balance the composition some. He's just facing the wrong way, still a beauty to look at.
