Another Butterfly

I just had so many great butterfly shots from my trip to the butterfly preserve at the Botanic Gardens that I had to share more. This majestic Monarch did not mind a close up. We saw so many kinds and so many colors and even some larvae and many chrysalises.

This is a super shot. Very clear and colorful. Fav. Which garden did you go to?

@mbrutus South Coast Botanic Garden in Rolling Hills. Highly recommend. Most butterfly pictures in my other albums. It was awesome.

Beautiful shot

Wonderful capture!
My proposal for get pushed challenge this week is to try a silhouette... I have a special love for this technique and I think it is worth the try...

This one is very pretty because of the hibiscus as part of the composition

@jaybutterfield Thanks for the suggestion. Don't know that I've ever been to Rolling Hills.

It is just as beautiful the second time around. Maybe moreso.
