Tiny Butterfly

This guy looked to be not even a 1/2 inch and was so very difficult to capture.

Beautiful capture Kerri...

[Robert Velten]

That is a Pygmy Blue, Brephidium exile. Nice macro shot, 18-55mm on macro setting? Really nice composition and good focus! Stems, wing veins and antennae certainly qualify for theme-lines!

[Rick Schies]

[Kerri]

Robert, I don't remember how I got this! I tried a lot of different setting to try and capture him and felt like this picture came out the best! This was definitely the 18-55 mm lens and I think I used the maro setting for it. Then I cropped it a little.

[Kerri]

I REALLY want a macro lens

[fruitsbasketfan]

[Emme]

Really beautiful! A fav

[Scott Dahlhauser]

Wow, great shot Kerri, he really does look small.

[Allison Williams]

It looks like a creature from a fairy tale!

[Karen Hofmann]

Beautiful!! I already miss them! It was so cold today there were definitely none around here.

@chevymom We have so many still!! It is 6:30 and 95 degrees outside!! :) I suspect we get to keep the butterflies for several more weeks!!
