I love this one!! What a great photo!
Brig — It isn’t perfectly focused, but since it was flying, I am well pleased!
Gorgeous! There’s something about the fragility of butterflies that make you appreciate what you’ve got.
OH WOW! Well… I didn’t catch one in flight! But I dO have a butterfly (or two) for Wednesday also! THAT is very well done Quilly! Were you using rapid fire???
breathtaking!
Mumma — this one amazed me, and I was there!
Melli — no rapid fire. I took three shots as it fluttered about and this one came out well enough that one could tell it is a butterfly. The other two did not.
Andrew — thank you.
Wow… Quilly, what a great shot … I love butterflies and have a butterfly bush in front of my house where I can watch them all day..thanks for sharing …Baba
Well done, Quilly. You’re right — it’s very difficult to capture images of these pretty “flying flowers.” Happy Wordless Wednesday.
Bobbie
Wow Quilly what a treasure photo that you snapped. That is one of those times when God just smiles and says “here love”.
Wow Quilly, that is so hard to do, and you did it so well!!!
That’s gorgeous!
What a perfect shot, Quilly!!!
happy ww
Perfect shot for WW! My WS too is up hope you can drop by and I am asking for your help…. I was nominated for pinoyworld blog of the week, located at my side bar… Hope you can vote for me… Thanks a lot! Happy WW!
Well captured!
nice shot..mine is up!
Great photo, Quilly. I have always loved butterflies and used to collect anything butterfly. Would have gotten a butterfly tattoo one day but for Divine Intervention, haha.
I’d like to chase that butterfly, Quilly. Arf!! Happy Woofless Wednesday.
Baba — well go out to the bush and start taking pictures! We want to see!
Bobbie — “flying flowers” — I like that.
Jules — I like “God smiles”, too!
Jientje — pure luck — I promise!
Mar — thank you.
PLOL — I’ll check it out.
Indrani — thank you.
Architect — thank you.
Alice — butterflies should be free, not drilled into your body.
Reba — as long as you didn’t catch it!
beautiful picture…hard shot to get, I would think.
Stunning, Quilly. What a great shot.
Great photo, I love the composition, the way the leaves frame the shot at left and the blurred mountain backdrop.
This must be butterfly day! It’s hard enough to catch one sitting still much less in flight. You did good!
Wow! Perfect capture!
What an utterly awesome shot! I’m speechless (quite an accomplishment).
Thanks for stopping by!
-Mojo
Wonderful! Great shot.
I love butterflies. You did such a great job of that picture.
That’s a wonderful shot of the butterfly.
Fantastic picture! Well framed, beautiful, and perfect timing. I wish I had that kind of skill!
Amazing capture. Not only is the butterfly in flight, but over water. To catch it from above you must have either been standing on a high bank, or have climbed the tree.
Float like a butterfly! I just came from Melli’s and she had butterflies. Butterflies and dragons.
Nicely framed!
Nea — you would have enjoyed the shot of me running up and down the street in butterfly zig-zags trying to capture this photo.
Sandy — thank you. It was pure luck.
Leora — so do I, and it was purely accidental!
Dot — it must be a butterfly day, indded. I have seen several so far — all of them stunning (and in much better focus than mine).
Mary T — thank you. It was pure luck.
Mojo — no, no, this isn’t Wordless Wednesday!
Judi — thank you. It was pure luck.
Debatuer — — thank you. It was pure luck.
Carver — thank you. It was pure luck.
Jeremiah — trust me, skill had nothing to do with it. I was so frustrated with that butterfly by the time I captured this photo, that I think God must have taken pity on me!
Randall — it isn’t over water, but it is over a ravine. I was on a bridge near our condo complex. I ran up and down it for about 40 minutes trying to photograph that damn ADHD butterfly. It wouldn’t be still for more than a second at a time!
Carletta — yes, Melli’s butterflies are much more magnificent, but hers sat STILL! I say she cheated!
Wow! What an awesome shot! I love the context he/she is in too. So small but so magnificent amidst his/her surroundings. Cool photo.
What a spectacular shot! I love when flying creatures are captured midflight in pictures. Amazing.
!
That is a very wonderful shot of the butterfly in flight. Love it!
*) thanks for the kind words!?!?
wow! the shot may not be technically perfect but the moment is priceless!
Raven — thank you. She is pretty small when compared to the tree and the mountain.
Lilac — thank you. I feel pretty “cool” about this pic.
Doug —
Amber — can you teach me how to leave sweet comments? I’ve not been doing so well lately.
PLO - It was an observation not an insult. You asked me to push a button and vote. Nowhere did it say what I was voting for, or who your opponents were. For all I know, you could have been asking me to drop a bomb on San Francisco. I declined. It seemed sensible at the time — and given further consideration, still does.
Polona — that’s what I thought. OC said, “It’s blurry.” I said, “It’s a butterfly in flight and I can tell it’s a butterfly in flight!”
Nice capture! I can’t see one of that kind without remembering the summer we went out and found over a hundred of the monarch caterpillars, put them in screened pens, fed them and kept them till the butterflies hatched from the cocoons.
I noticed your Ruby Tuesday entry- that looks like a fun thing to participate in- I’m going to try and remember to do one next week.
Also, where did you get the comment script thing in your sidebar? I found one somewhere, but I really like yours better.
That had to be a hard shot to get. The butterfly is beautiful. It must be a butterfly day.
that’s just AWESOME. nice one quilly.
oh, and the letter ‘q’ thing was just me being silly. next time i will choose ‘x’. . .
Love it! What a great photo! Thanks for stopping by my blog today.
I love what you said on my blog tonight!
Yes, it’s been so long and I don’t know why. It’s template is from the same group that my poetry blog’s is from, but it has never had problems.
(I love Diet Dr. Pepper, too.
Lovely!!! It is the flight after all that makes the journey worthwhile.
