stroll in niagara Open & Shut

Great capture of these two beautiful butterfly´s ... The blue color are very strong and wonderful... Great work....

All my best, Jill

Very beautiful, I love the irridescent feel look of the wings on the blue one.  I was in the butterfly conservetory once many years ago.  I'd love to go back now that I am 'taking pics'......nice work Bill, sincerely, Gail

Thanks for your comments everyone, very much appreciated.

Gail, I'm glad you noticed the iridescent wings, that delicate, powdery texture is typical on these butterflies.

My daughter has just caught the photo bug and bought a D3000, now she is borrowing some of my lenses to see what she wants to get for herself.

So far she has been to the butterfly conservatories in Montreal, Here, near Guelph and Niagara this weekend. She is becoming a nature photographer, likes to take butterflies, flowers and landscapes.

You should try getting out to somewhere like that yourself, there are some wonderful plants and flowers in the conservatories.

All my best,   Bill
