I was out in my front yard laying on the grass taking pictures this evening, and kept getting looks like I was crazy, and even getting honked and hollered at in the process. I was about to head inside since I got ones that I really liked, when I saw this monarch butterfly sitting there. I just couldn’t pass it up, the lighting was perfect, and the butterfly didn’t move beyond opening and closing its wings.

Aahahaha! The woes of being an artistic photographer… sometimes the things we do for an image make other people chuckle. Or downright laugh at us.

Really lovely capture!
Wonderful shot. Having just attempted some macro photos of butterflys at the weekend, I know how difficult it is to get the right depth of field whilst keeping that creamy bokeh. Good job!
It really is a tricky balance to get correct, that is for sure. Thank you!
