I came across these two butterflies.
They were sampling from a thistle, one on each side.
Nature knows how to create beauty and symmetry.

1/640s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso100 full exif

Thanks all for the compliments.

Eric - This was handheld. I just made sure my shutter speed was faster than the lens' focal length and voila, nice and crisp. Canon's image stabilisation doesn't hurt either. :)
