As predicted, we got hit with another huge snowstorm a few days ago.
But for today,
we will once again revisit late summer.....because I don't want you to get tired of snow pictures!
And who can think of summer without
butterflies???
Two beauties:
Have you ever seen a butterflies EYES????:
(holy moley!) But his wings were all chewed up...so maybe he still is in trauma. LOL
An orange beauty:
Two bees and two butterflies! Do you see them all???
I love these pastel yellow butterflies, but they are very hard to photograph, especially in the sunlight.
They have a pink rim on the outside of their yellow wings, but it is hard to see in this shot.
They are lovely:
These shots make me so melancholy as I am sitting beside a window overlooking
my yard full of white.....Next blog pictures will be more of our winter snow....stay tuned!!

ReplyDeleteSadly since we're a bit shy on flowers around here in summer, it means we don't get too many butterfiles either. :o(
Looking forward to summer once again ! Beautiful photos ! Have a great day !
ReplyDeletei have not seen 2 butterflies and 2 bees in the same photo before. that is a amazing and so are the butterfly eyes. these are wonderful, the colors are beautiful. i will whisper this.. we have butterflies in our yard, now.
ReplyDeleteaww...love all the little butterflies...so beautiful and delicate...so trying to keep yourself warm by focusing on summer? smiles.

Wow. Those are amazing shots! Love the close ups.
ReplyDeleteThose first two shots are gorgeous, but I say that a lot on your site!
ReplyDeleteGlorious photography! Just breath-taking...
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the (is it called "bouka"?) effect of up-close being clear and distance being hazy. Or visa-versa. LOVE it. You must have a wonderful camera.
Mine doesn't dooooooo that. But once in a while, I will get a pic which shows it. And I'm happy as a kid in a candy store. :-)

I agree with you, the butterflies and flowers do cheer when the weather is foul outside. The pictures are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures. The butterflies might almost like the weather here today. All the snow has melted,but I am sure we will get more,at least I hope so.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Photos!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteI still see a few butterflys but off at a distance. I guess I'll have to wait till next spring.
Oh my gosh, your photography is awesome. What a talent you have! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSigh..... Your pictures are like a breath of fresh Spring air. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeletejj
Goodness, after seeing all your snowy photos below I would imagine you were ready to see some flowers and butterflies too.
ReplyDeleteAll of the butterflies are so pretty. I love your shot with the bees and butterflies.
These beautiful butterflies make the lovely plants & flowers appear so sublime !
ReplyDeleteThe yellow ones don't want to stand still long enough to be photographed. All your butterflies look great. We have the one butterfly but the second one I have never seen before now.
