Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  Â

Such cryptic markings! You can see how it could vanish in the right environment.

I think that it is one of the longwing (heliconia).I don't recall the name of this specific one,but I believe that they are native to Central and south America.A fine shot.

A super capture of this beautiful butterfly, with its wonderful markings showing so well. It has come out yellow and brown on my monitor but it still looks fantastic.

Resembles a Monarch. Compared to the surrounding foliage, if you hadn't said the colors on the butterfly were black and green, I would have said black and yellow, Dana. Excellent capture, my friend.

Butterfly's will always look like royalty to me, especially with their wings open - like a big cape! and I love the symmetry of that particular pattern, Marvellous capture, Dana BB
