Not sure what lens was used, I could not find the info, but it was one of the two zoom's. :) Wish I could have captured the whole shot but I do like the markings on it's wings.

Not sure if I will keep this one up, having second thoughts, I will see what you have to say. :)

Thank you in advance for your comments.

Do they sit in buckeye trees a lot, too? I bet they are Ohio State Buckeye fans. LOL. I like the markings on this fella too. Sure is purdy. Beautiful lighting in this shot. Very nice work.

The clarity in the shot is outstanding Sandi - I can tell from the size you had to crop but it is very good work.

The bright colors look good with winter just around the corner. A good butterfly shot is always welcome.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

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

Sandi...The detail on your shot is stunning. Even the wear and tear on the wings is apparent as the butterfly season draws to a close.

I really like the way one can see through it's wings yet the color is retained.

Oh, he's pretty and he looks like he has eaten himself a small meal of the zinnia leaf. Is this why they call Ohio the buckeye state?
