Outstanding capture! Painted Lady butterflies have such beautiful and complex patterns on their wings.

**MikeNArk** · 09-21-2022, 06:41 AM

Yes, it is a very good shot of a painted lady on some pretty pink flowers. Great detail and colors.

Thanks. I'll try to remember that name as I have seen them several times in photos.

Thanks for this; I will try to remember, and see if the little woman recalls the variety.

As I look back on this a few from a few days ago, I appreciate it as being one of my better captures. Thank you for your kind comment.

It does capture the imagination, but the coloration does not camouflage it as well amongst purple tinted flowers.
