Description

Once again while shooting some plants and flowers another Monarch flys in for a photo op. This is the only shot I got of it, and it was gone. Many thanks for you comments on my last post and as always much Aloha to everyone!

fine composition and a difficult subject to shoot. perhaps you could print down the entire image to diminish the large featureless expanses of white petals.

The soft white of rose petals is awsome. Buttie is sure a bonus.Great detail!
