Description

Whe I went to pick the runner beans last evening this butterfly was posing ready for me. The later generations like this are generally darker than the earlier ones.

You either eat, sleep and do everything else with your camera at the ready, or you are one very lucky lady, as well as being a great photographer :) Thanks for the share, your photos brighten my day!

What a Corker! Both bloom and butterfly in perfect condition. The dying leaves in the background that try to get into all perfect pictures have also been eradicated. So the lush greenery proliferates leaving me bowing at true perfection! We're not worthy! By the way did I mention I like it!

Not only is the butterfly perfectly placed and still but the leave to the left has a perfectly complementary bend. Excellent!

Very gorgeous! How did you get the butterfly to land and open in the perfect place on the flower? Bribery?? Great work!
