    Your butterfly images are amazing! Just when I think they can’t get any better… another stunner!

  • I’m glad you like these images. It seems you enjoy butterflies as much as I do.

    Beautiful colors! I love this!

  • The way they faced each other they almost form a “V”. I wanted to title this “V for Viceroy”, but they are not viceroys. Thanks as always Carlie.

    Superb capture – how fantastic to find two winged beauties together on this bloom. Well done. Cheers, S.

  • Thanks sig. I felt that having two same species of butterfly on the same flower was special too. Like I said before I was lucky to be in the right spot at the right time that day.

    Wonderful, wonderful color, great clarity, fabulous.

  • Love the words about the clarity. In macro, those can be some of the most complimentary words ever. Macro can be so challenging. Thanks so much.

    Awesome shot! They almost look like they could be chatting as they feed :o)

  • They were. They were saying, “I can’t get enough sweets. I have such a sweet tooth, it’s all going to my hips.” LOL
