A few weeks ago I noticed a butterfly at work. It was flapping around on the ground, so I knew it wouldn’t live much longer. So I decided I’d bring him home, show him to the girls so they could get a good close look at a butterfly. I put him between two small paper plates and taped the edges in four places. This makes the perfect butterfly transportation container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the next day I realized that this butterfly would be the perfect photographic subject. Cara (one of my daughters) had a box of Zinnia’s outside that she’d grown this summer, so I balanced the butterfly on top of one of them and got some pretty good shots. There are two in color, two in sepia and two wallpaper sized. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
