Painted Lady up-close-and-personal [Filler]

This shot shows how a butterfly's long proboscis is rolled up and I like the texture on the orange part of the wing. It's been a boom year for the Painted Lady population here.

:-\ Only frames actually shot today were more practice shots for next week's total solar eclipse; see https://365project.org/rhoing/365/2017-07-24
