I love your description which includes your need to work on your sermon. Certainly, the Sovereignty of God is a wonderful subject. He is so good to us everyday and I love Him so. The photo is lovely. -- Debby

Wow, what a beauty!
Your work on this one is outstanding. I like the way you cropped the image and enhanced the colours. You "lealed" the left wing perfectly. I'm just wondering why you didn't do the same with the right one...

Yes, it did, Den, thanks!! There were some interesting presentations, an excellent meal and they kept the award ceremony short and sweet!

I have to tell you that your name was got a mention or two as we travelled ~ especially when I got my son to stop in Chipping Warden so that I could take a picture of a thatched cottage!!! ;-))

Best regards, Chris

What a beautiful specimen Chris. Before I read your About I thought it was a monkey metal casting. Great capture and very skillful PS repair work. Congrats.

PS Did the presentaion at Daventry go off OK yesterday?

What an amazing Flutterbye Chris. Looks like it's armour plated. Is it a British Isles native or an exotic? Good work on the wing reconstruction. Regards John

How utterly beautiful Mr S - I don't think I have ever seen this butterfly. The wings are like shiny silk; just look at the beautiful patterns on it! Excellent capture, you could not have asked for a better pose.
Enjoy working today - it's a glorious day over here and I am just about to leave for a nursery to buy some plants.
Good news on my two little ones - they are pulling through! :-))))

I think it's fantastic...gorgeous...beautifull... ehhhhhhh....wonderfull...beautifull....eh, did I mention that?? :-/ Hm...
I don't see why you need a 'macro-lens'...so we all can see this beauti in small peices??? and admire the small antannas..??
I think you did a wonderfull work here, Chris.
The sun on the wings are so great...and the composition!
VERY WELL DONE!!
:-)
And...ps. I have noticed you have been busy!! ;-) Keep up having fun...see you
;-)

Here's the original.
His wing was damaged so I 'healed' it in PS7!
