Default Shhhhh, be very quiet...I'm hunting butterflies !

We've had a shortage of butterflies this summer, I'm really not sure why. So, I'd almost given up, but my luck changed on Friday. I'm Soooo happy ! I hope you like these little beauties.

Hi Shanna and welcome to the site, I hope you have fun here,
love the image, not easy to catch at times but you done a great job with this image. Love the contrast in colors with the way the yellow pops against the green, only thing I might change it to crop it slightly to take your main subjects out of the middle of the image but other than that its super
Have fun here.
David.

What a lovely capture Shanna. They look like twins. Unusual to get the two of them together and so much alike and the colours are lovely. Very nice work.

Dave.

Two for the price of one! Nice image. I might be wrong but I think they are Common Sulphur
(Colias philodice) butterflies.
