So pretty, Sandy...the background sets everything off beautfullus! #11330194Ann Lyssenko July 12, 2015
An especially beautiful image Sandy! The diagonal of the flower with strong details, the strong pose of the butterfly, and then the blurred background with that complementary hints of the flower color. Beautiful work! Ann #11330201Sandy Driscoll July 12, 2015
Thank you all so much! I just started 'raising' Monarchs and this was my very first butterfly, visiting my milkweed plant. Also, my first post on Betterphoto for a very long time, so your comments are very inspiring! #11330260Jeff Sielski July 12, 2015
