Butterfly on Willow

[Peter Ward]

No.... nothing as morbid at a cricket bat meets bug.

This sublime little fella landed on the twisted willow in our front yard....the
light was fading fast, but have to say I was happy with the result.

SO how did you stick him there to photograph Peter ;) Lovely colours and patterns

[Peter Ward]

Ta...actually no tricks at all...the little bugger stayed there for over 30 minutes.

Could also be "she"..Lepidopterology is not something I have much of a handle on.

Unreal. Everything in the pose is symetrical right down to the antennas. Lovely colors too. :thumbsup: -1 for the top right leg up though. Throws the shot IMHO. :P ;)

Excellent capture Peter

The colours and patterns are lovely.

Very Pretty Peter,

I must admit that I thought you might have been commenting on the Australian batsmen's current abilities in hitting a cricket ball, it has been rather dismal of late.

This is lovely, nice work. Ain't nature wonderful?

Cheers
