It is not a Monarch, it is a Viceroy.

This is by far the best butterfly shot I have ever seen. It almost looks backlit. Great job.

There's so much to like about this excellent shot! The light hitting the center of the butterfly almost makes him glow! I bet this is wonderful framed!

Thanks for all the very nice supportive comments! It has been an extraordinary summer for everything living. I printed this out 8" X 10" and I'm going to frame it. Carm

I think that is the best and most colorful butterfly picture I have seen. Super job!

Magnificent Carm. I've got Monarchs several times, none of them as good as yours. Very well composed and it's really good catch.

Excellent - I like the way the purple and orange "theme" runs through the background as well as the wonderfully saturated colors.

Hi Carm,
This is just gorgeous. The best I have seen of a Monarch.
