The gift that keeps on giving

For my birthday present the boys gave me a butterfly bush. Now I no longer have to stalk my neighbor's yard to photograph butterflies.

My first visitor that I was able to capture was a Variegated Fritillary


She was thirsty


Used a TTV (through the viewfinder) processing method on this one


I would like to get a few more bushes and spread them around the house. I just love watching the delicate, colorful flutter of their wings.
