Kitty- I love everything about it. That lighting is awesome, the colors are so gorgoeus and radiant, beautiful compostion and the details of the flowers and the butterfly are fantastic. What I especially love is the way that butterfly is looking at that other flower as he is sitting on the other one. Like, ummmmmmm, that one looks pretty delicious to.Barbara Waldoch August 21, 2010
