Odd Shots Monday – 08/25/08

Posted by Stephany on August 25, 2008

“We are like butterflies who flutter for a
day and think it is forever.”
– Carl Sagan –

Today’s Odd Shots Monday is a combination – an eye shot for Julie and Abe, and a butterfly (Gulf Fritillary) for Marge and Klaus.

    Excellent butterfly close-up. Perfect choice with such beautiful patterns on it.

    Love your hydrangea, too. It makes me want to go see if I can get one to grow in my desert yard.

    How to be delicate and gaudy at the same time! Puts me to mind of the old song ‘Ma, he’s making eyes at me’ …

    Beautiful closeup and great angle catch! I have never seen such as usually I am looking for the spread of wings.

    It’s a beautiful shot, but I never realized until now that butterflies are so ugly! Fantastic detail.
