Butterfly Scarce swallowtail
Pictures of butterflies are beautiful, aren't they? Does it feel easy to photograph butterflies? Well, photographers would probably agree with me that it's not easy. I've been trying to photograph a "butterfly beauty."
Butterflies are constantly flitting from one flower to another, or from place to place. Photographing a butterfly can test your patience or even be annoying.
And then...the butterfly lands and opens its wings!
A close-up of the butterfly's eyes and antennae!
This butterfly has one wing damaged. I shot holding the camera with one hand as I had the butterfly sitting on my other hand! I did it, didn't I?
The butterfly was catching energy from the sun and feeding on lilac pollen.
Oh, there it is!
But the very moment you try to put the "lovely beauty" in focus, she folds her wings, or flies away!

Wow wonderful photography of butterflies
Thanks for stopping by .Butterflies are amazing creations!
beautiful butterfly and photos
You even managed to hold butterfly on your hand
It seems hard to take photo of butterfly - they move around but I also noticed that sometimes some of them are more calm than others
Lets say that this challenge can be accepted and it would be nice to take photos of butterfly since they are back
do share more if butterfly hunt ends successfully
