A Small Butterfly, Casts a Long Shadow!


You just cannot get a butterfly to pose on command! I waited and waited for it to open it's wings, and when it did, I missed it. Usually this was due to me fending off mosquitoes, who love the humid morning air. I stood in the same position for almost a half hour. Finally the butterfly and I were in sync, and I snapped this pic. At least I believe it is a butterfly and not a moth. She or he is not the most colorful thing on the planet, but pretty all the same. The background was gray to begin with, but I changed it to black and white, and left the butterfly in color.
