Beautiful shot - I love the translucence of the wings, which so closely mimic the structure of leaves...

Outstanding Jeff. Have to agree with moochagoo...first rate macro with backlighting that really makes this little bugger pop.

"And this is my 'King of the World' pose." I have to say, this image actually made me feel good. It is that good. I wonder if he knows any fireflies?

Fabulous photo, Jeff, and I am SO envious of the Zinnia. I find them very difficult most years.

Oh My GOSH WOW!!!! This is so gorgeous! I understand I missed your birthday and maybe something is happening that is not so nice as well. I hope you had a happy birthday and that all comes better for you and your family soon.
