Description
Besides children, I can find no greater beauty on earth than in these small moments. This is an over the shoulder view of a lovely little Orange Sulphur butterfly on a bright pink Zinnia flower in my garden in Ohio. These little guys used to be quite common, but now they seem to be fewer. Their ventral side is somewhat plain compared to this bright burst of pattern and color on the 'inside' dorsal view. The spots of orange give them their name. I just have to stop a be quiet and drink in the scene and try to remember to click the shutter!
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!
