Captured in the Wilderness…...MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY
The Gulf Fritillary
TECH INFO: Nikon D1x camera, Macro dedicated lens 200 mm

To EMAIL ME please do so at myart4u@earthlink.net

The Gulf Fritillary is a striking, bright orange butterfly of the family Nymphalidae and sub-family Heliconiinae. It was formerly classified in a separate family, the Heliconiidae or longwing butterflies, and like other longwings it does have long, rather narrow wings in comparison with other butterflies. It is not closely related to the true fritillaries. It is a medium to large butterfly, with a wingspan of from 6 to 9.5 cm. Its underwings are buff, with large silvery spots. It takes its name from the fact that migrating flights of the butterflies are sometimes seen over the Gulf of Mexico.

The Gulf Fritillary is commonly seen in parks and gardens, as well as in open country. Its range extends from Argentina through Central America Mexico, and the West Indies to the southern United States, as far north as the San Francisco Bay Area on the west coast. It is occasionally found further north in the US.

Hello, My name is Maki Hodnett and I am writing to you regarding a book that I have written. I am currently looking for artwork to accompany my writings and your work” busy flatterby” would be perfect for what I am trying to accomplish with my book. I wanted to ask If it would be possible to use this piece in my book? The book is entitled The Autobiography of Bliss and its basically a few of my writings that I have put together in hopes of inspiring people to follow their passion. I can give you a copy of the manuscript if needed. If this does sound like something you would be interested in contributing to, please tell me your rates for your work and I will be more than happy to oblige. Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Maki Hodnett
