Description
I think this shot shows why I grab my camera and run when I spot a Pipevine Swallowtail in my Ohio garden. I just cannot imagine anything more beautiful in nature. I see these as small kisses from heaven; showing that we are loved by Something so great that creates such gifts for us each day. Life can be hard and no one gets through it unscarred, but it is good to know that we are always loved.

Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
