Whenever I look at butterflies...remember the sentence that life should be like a butterfly. Short and beautiful.........

I don't know of the whole life...and definitely know that at my Hollad trip I'm going to enjoy the butterfly life moment :D

This butterfly is either Painted Lady or Real Admiral, not sure due to closed wings.

Friends enjoy the beauty of nature and hope everyone gets a chance to have butterfly moments in the life.

Thanks, Vandana

Life may equally be LONG and beautiful, Vandana ;o)). Excellent close-up, but I think the flower is stealing the show here, not so much the butterfly... because the flower has both bright colours and nice patterns.

Very lovely. Great bg. the colors really stand out against it.

it's narrated that..
a light flapping of butterfly wing, here, is able to create a tornado in another part of the world..
it's the famous butterfly effect.. ;) (chaos theory)
life should be like a butterfly... Short and beautiful.. but also significant, incredible and intense...
everything is possible.. for who has opened eyes.. and opened mind.. also, as you.. to take consciousness of the life beauty through a butterfly..
belive me, it’s no more so frequent..
i love butterflyes.. and i like this shot, my friend..
taken so well in these colors of this flower so alive and intense.. very well done!
ciao Marco

A beautiful capture Vandana,
I love your composition and the colour against the dark background.
Well done!
Bill

Nice macro, although focal point is on the flower and not the butterfly. Composition is great as is the contrast in textures and colours.
Thanks for sharing
Mark

excellent macro work Vandana. And yes i agree that the focal point should be on both subjects as to give emphasis to the butterfly. lovely composition and colors though. TFS!
