I haven't posted on this forum for a while as I have been targeting birds as of late but still love macro/closeup. I met some friends out at the Tijuana River Bird and Butterfly Garden yesterday, we had a great time but both birds and butterflies were scarce!! This one butterfly was cooperative and was in perfect condition.

Thanks for Looking and All C&C Welcomed

Hi

A highly enjoyable image – the subject has been capture well while the flowery surrounds are indeed adding attractive colour appeal. Butterflies are pretty much non existence over here at present, mostly due to the cold weather

Thanks for sharing
Matthew
