My husband is just the greatest! To help dissipate my photography blahs he took me to the Milwaukee Museum Butterfly house. Hope you don't mind some splashes of color because these aren't all the photos.
oh wow! this is such a great treat! i believe butterflies are one of the loveliest winged creatures... i don't mind that they eat a lot of leaves during their "caterpillar stage"... their beauty is worth it... and my fave is the last 5 macro shots... the butterfly on 2nd and the 3rd to the last photos looks cheeky:)
What photography blahs?! From your posts at least, I have seen nothing but your usual beautiful work! (Still daydreaming about those snowflakes...) Lovely butterfly pics. Hope the blahs go away, and keep the pics coming!
Oh, you have given me a place to visit...would love to see it. And to see it in the winter, bet that helps with the winter blues we all seem to be having.
Please thank the hubster for us. These are magnificent! I especially like the last one and the one somewhere in the middle that looks like him. Awesome work!
How fun! I loved going to our Butterfly Exhibit over the summer too. They are one of the coolest things to photograph. You really captured some beautiful flutters. My favorite is the 3rd form the bottom. So crisp!
