Wow Annie, those are cool. But that first one . . . WOW!! I love how the petals are up on one flower and down on the other, and the butterfly wings look like stained glass, I think I see a shadow of stems through one of the orange spots. That's some FANTASTIC photography!

Annie, you have certainly become quite the expert with that camera of yours! Excellent pics! They need to be published somewhere.

Re: Butterflies and a flower pic
Wow! I'm so jealous of your talent and your monarchs. We only get swallowtails, frittilaries, and little white butterflies.
My husband let the lawn care people spray insecticide. I was really upset, but what is done is done. I wonder if insecitcide got on my parsley host plants!
