At least one penguin saw the visitor! by gilbertwood

At least one penguin saw the visitor!

A butterfly entered my house and landed on the painting of my favourite penguins. Can you see it too? The painting is done by local artist Robert Ulmann (now deceased) who became very famous for his wildlife paintings. And no, I didn't set it up!! I then ushered it outside after I took the photo :)
How magnificent! What a great find.

Your butterfly stands out well against that wonderful painting DEnise, I did not know of this artist but looked his work up, he had an interesting life and produced some wonderful sculptures and paintings:)

@pcoulson Yes Peter, he was an amazing man. Warrnambool has several of his paintings and sculptures around which is great. I luckily have 2 of his paintings. We were neighbours for some time and his sense of humour was amazing too. It was nothing for him to have an orphaned possum in his jumper at any time!!

@gilbertwood So nice to have known the artist and your so lovely to own two of his works Denise sorry for not checking your name previously finger trouble and a senior moment possibly :)
January 10th, 2017  
That's great, I love how it looks like the second penguin is getting a closer look at the butterfly!
January 10th, 2017  
Lovely shot Denise.Is it a collectors item ?
January 10th, 2017  
Nice painting and didn't notice the butterfly until you said!
January 10th, 2017  
Nice painting. I also didn't notice the butterfly until I read your post :)
January 10th, 2017  
Well worth recording this shot. I saw the butterfly right away, as we have the same one in our garden at the moment.
January 10th, 2017  
Love the painting and your capture with the butterfly. He landed in a perfect spot for the one penguin to spot him
January 10th, 2017  
@peterlgrave Yes the painting is now - gone up a lot since his death and I luckily have two - but I'll not part with them :)
January 10th, 2017  
I love your painting, Denise. The butterfly showed very good taste in wanting to check it out :)
January 10th, 2017  
What a wonderful moment! Fav!
January 10th, 2017  
What a fabulous shot. I really like the painting too.
January 10th, 2017  
Well spotted and captured Denise. Love the painting and the butterfly is getting a closer look too.
January 10th, 2017  
I love the painting! When I first saw it I assumed that it was an edited photo you had taken. I can see why he achieved notoriety as an artist.
January 10th, 2017  
How perfect! Neat painting, and where the butterfly landed was masterful.
January 10th, 2017  
Super shot...the one penguin seems to be looking at the butterfly :)
January 10th, 2017  
how cute that the penguin has spotted it too! Lovely capture
January 10th, 2017

Well spotted and timely capture.

Really nicely spotted - the touch of color against that neat painting is terrific.
January 11th, 2017  
That was a lucky surprise. Super capture.
January 11th, 2017  
I like how penguin number two seems to be staring at the butterfly as if to say "what the heck are you doing in here?"
January 11th, 2017  
A gorgeous painting and so funny that the penguin is really looking at the butterfly - maybe he's hungry for something other than krill.
January 11th, 2017  
Excellent timing to spot this. At least you have got one alert penguin. Fabulous shot.
January 11th, 2017  
Wonderful find ...I had to look for the butterfly, but once I spotted it I found it an interesting addition to the painting! fav!
January 11th, 2017  
That's astounding, Denise!!! The match-up is spot-on perfect! Love the painting as well!
January 11th, 2017  
Hehehehehehehehehehe very well spotted!
January 11th, 2017  
Nice capture and he's sort of blending in with the feet colour. Too funny how the penguin saw him too.
January 11th, 2017  
That's an amazing capture and I LOVE the painting. Fav.
January 11th, 2017  
Wow! What incredible timing!!! This is amazing, fav!!
