SnowWhite & The Purple Flower
Uploaded: July 19, 2005
I thought that this was interesting; a white butterfly with a soft purple flower. I desat. the background to intensify the uniqueness of the butterfly and bring a slightly different perspective to a butterfly shot.
After looking at this shot a bit (maybe too long) I realized that his eyes were colorful, kinda like he was drinking color from the flower and it was slowly penetrating him!! Maybe if I had sat there long enough the flower would have gone white and the butterfly would have been purple LOL LOL! OK, OK, it is time for me to go to bed!! LOL :o)
