Yesterday we had a wonderful family afternoon and evening.
We were in Stratford upon Avon, and visited their Butterfly Farm.
I got several lovely shots, and will post them in the coming week or so. I was particularly taken with this guy. If anyone knows what it is I would love to know, he isn't in any of my books.
In the evening we went out for dinner and took the kids to see their first ever Shakespeare play at the Royal Shakespeare Company theatre. We broke them in gently with Twelfth Night, and they loved it. More of that on a later shot.
Added to that, Southampton won, one of our 2 rivals for promotion only got a draw, and I had a flutter on a horse I have watched progress all winter in the Irish Grand National at 33/1 and it won!!
@dishaparekh176@debsulzberger Thank you both. Oxford is about 45 mins from Stratford Deb, and about 90 minutes from me. I passed Oxford on saturday on my way to Southampton.
@webfoot Many thanks Paul, I appreciate your kind comments. There are several more in my other albums in Jan and Feb, and it is also worth looking at @runningbk because Mike has some amazing shots in his back catalogue.
Great shot, Sean, and a FAV for me. It's so crisp and perfectly focused. I wish someone would chime in on the variety of butterfly this is because I know I've never seen one.
