Such majestic beauty! The butterfly looks frail, but those big wings leave a means of escape. Given his looks, he can sip nectar wherever he wants!

I'm jealous...I've been trying for so long to get a good butterfly shot...this is super! Love the shadows.

But what does it mean when you ask a question and someone says, "Only the Shadow knows?" Do you know?
