Butterflies

I love butterflies and I have a butterfly board on Pinterest full of butterfly pictures.  These beautiful images inspired me to create my own, so I spent a day at my local botanic garden where there's a butterfly pavilion.   I could honestly look at butterflies for hours (and in this case I did trying to get some good pictures!)  I still need practice with my new camera.  For every good picture I took, I had tons of bad ones. Thank goodness for digital cameras which allow you take as many pictures as you want!  Butterflies are challenging subjects anyway since they don't hold still.  I managed to get a few good shots and these are some of my favorites that I'm sharing with you today.
