    That's beautiful. I would have those pictures framed and hanging on my bedroom wall.

    Thank you waretrop...any time you want any pictures let me know. I would be honored if anyone wants to blow them up and hang. I have hundreds of pictures of butterflys through the years. I will ask anyone that would like to use my photographs to just let me know and I will give you my real name to put on the back of them.

    Brilliant shots Sherry of a stunning butterfly. Your photographs were some of the things I missed most whilst incapacitated.

    If I were a butterfly, I'd go to your garden too with all those beautiful blooms! :stew2:
