I seem to be on a pink streak - 2 in a row! A clouded sulphur butterfly (male) finds happiness on a pink thistle flower.
Still working hard to catch up on my commenting. Hang in there! Hope to be in your BP corner soon!

Pink perfection indeed with an added bonus Val! #10249355Don Christiana July 29, 2012
Val, your macro work is always perfection. I finally saw a butterfly this year. This is two years in a row that they just seem to scip our area. We have plenty of flowers for them. So do me a favor and send down a few of those beauties a little south to our gardens. #10249379Michelle Alton July 29, 2012

You've got a fabulous image here Val with this green beauty enjoying its find. Love the way the whole thing is rendered against the backdrop. It is a refreshing sight especially during these hot summer days. #10267963Emile Abbott August 09, 2012
Pink is good. Fabulous macro and well timed Val. My computer is broken and in repair and I feel like I have a broken wing for BP uploads and comments. Yuck. #10269243Julie Burnett August 10, 2012
