BUTTERFLY IN MY BACKYARD

Fort Worth, TX

Lots of stuff to shoot in my backyard. Haven't felt well in a couple of days and stayed home but sat outside for a little while and caught this butterfly. So, it wasn't a completely boring day.
I do feel much better this evening so I will be going to work tomorrow. I'm sure I have a lot to catch up on! ARGGGHHHHH!

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
1/800s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso400 full exif

Cindi ... hope you're feeling better but it was our good fortune you were home to catch this shot. Beautiful ... and I see that you're using that new lens. Are you hand-holding this or using a tripod? Voted ...
