Today........Yes, .today was Butterfly day

It is the last day of our holiday and we (that is my hubby, daughter, son in law and grandson) decided to visit Haddon Hall in Matlock. A Tudor House dating back to the 1200. The house was facinating, but the gardens and grounds were splendid, and alive with butterflies and bees so many couldn't count them. Therefore today's photo has to include a butterfly.

Nice butterfly shot. These little white and yellow ones are hard to capture. You did a great job.

Nicely shot with a butterfly for the day. I find some of these creatures so hard to get still, well done.

[Sassik]

Love your composition! Beautiful softness! Butterfly well captured! I think the backdrop, colours and composition are so important to make butterfly shot special and you did it!

The building sounds fascinating indeed, but like you, I would probably have enjoyed the garden even more. I absolutely love the delicacy of this capture, fav for me!

Love your perspective with the diagonal background leaves. They offset the angle of your butterfly superbly :)
