~Butterfly of New Mexico~


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   ~Butterfly of New Mexico~
~Butterfly of New Mexico~
This was taken in Albuquerque, NM while walking around taking pictures. I took it in the afternoon using my digital and hand held. I am not sure of the name but loved the bright orange with the pink flowers. I thought I would give you all some other pictures from NM and post more sunsets later. I have a lot to show you from the trip. Hope you all have a super Monday!

Great shot Shelly! This little guy is a Dryas Iulia or more commonly known as a Julia butterfly. I have a couple of picture of them in my gallery as well! Nicely done!

Sorry I didn't have a chance to get back to you. Yes, your dog looks alot like Cheyenne!! I think Chey's nose is a little more rounded though.
