Butterfly Garden Plus New Lens … Nice Couple
Swallowtail Butterfly on Privet flowers.
This spring I cleared a portion of my backyard and planted lots of seeds, not just to enhance the surroundings, but in the hope of getting lots of "nature" shots with my new lens and camera.
Took this about an hour ago I hope it's just the beginning of a productive summer and fall, literally in my own backyard.
Note: This shot's for all and especially for Uppy.
So far, so good. (All Rights Reserved/ A. Mac/A.G.)
More to come I hope.
Awwww...how sweet is that! What a guy you are and talented to boot! Thanks Mac! Love it!!
Breathtakingly beautiful
Thanks for sharing
I'm very envious of your talent AMac. I'm just glad you share it with us.
Nature is so detailed.
Thanks to good people for kind words.

Sweet Jesus!
Absolutely stunning Mac.
You can actually see the color of his eyes!
Your talent amazes me sir.... I salute you.
One of your best ever!
That is a great photo - composition, subject, colour, focus, sharpness. Especially to be appreciated is the colour-graduated background forming a variable contrasting background.
Lots of rain heading my way and I anticipate a flower explosion soon; unfortunately and, somewhat alarmingly, butterflies were scarce last year and so far, this year as well.
The butterfly in the photo is the only Tiger Swallowtail I've seen so far this year -- and many other species -- none at all.
Awesome shot Mac. Quite a few people noticed the shortage of butterflieslast year, it really bummed me out. I hope to see more this year!
Beautiful photos Mac. We had lot's of butterflies last year and a good number this year as well.
Thumbs up !
