painted blue

The blue butterflies seemed the most elusive in the Volière des Papillons at le chateau de Goulaine but I managed to capture one. I've given it a little painterly treatment.
This is beautiful Hazel! Love the colour of this butterfly! fav

You cant beat nature for wonderful colour. Well captured. I have a small framed picture consisting of a dark cut-out layer like a stencil with a butterfly wing behind providing the colour. I will photograph it and post the shot.
