I figured everyone was probably getting tired of seeing jumping spiders. So, I thought I'd post a butterfly. This is a male Melissa Blue (Lycaeides melissa) from North Dakota. This image is the cover for the book Butterflies of North Dakota. Anyone who has photographed blues knows how tiny they are. When basking, they hold their wings at about a 45 degree angle. So I try to parallel one side or the other.
