LauraMaria was spot on with the stained glass. How can they fly so fast and easy with wings so fragile...
I see a story telling images in your most spotting..want to tell something.. :)
Haha thanks. I care about composition and presentation a lot. Glad it shows!
Its good presentation, STTweets had good presentation sense...!!
Thanks Laura for confirmation.
Ashish is right, male monarch it is! Gorgeous photo, I love that first one. The wings with the sunlight coming through make me think of stained glass windows :) Beautiful butterflies and lovely composition!
