Yes, the butterfly looks surprised! Nature shots are perfect timing just as this proves! Wonderful detail and perspective, Kathy! Congrats on the POTD! ...did the butterfly escape?
Robin-Lee Vieira commented on August 30, 2008 09:05:
A superb capture with excellent detail. Extremely well seen and captured! Big congrats Kathy on this lovely POTD!

Thank you for the kind comments Barbara, Marion, Leif, Chrissy, Ken, and Renee. Thanks Kevin for choosing this today. It was luckily never for this butterfly. I sat for what must have been 10 hours last weekend waiting for the "grab". I did finally get one of a much smaller skipper. Fred, as I named him, has moved on. I will miss his adorable face (LOL).
Kathy Shogren commented on August 30, 2008 09:11:
Sorry to miss you Robin-Lee. I guess we were typing at the same time. Thanks so much for the nice comment.
Linn Smith commented on August 30, 2008 10:54:
They do not get any better than this!!! Perfect timing and well worth the long wait and effort...an exceptional and one of a kind image! Congratulations, Kathy, you continue to amaze me with your outstanding images!
Bob Reisinger commented on August 30, 2008 12:46:
Hi Kathy, Another great shot! Your macros are special, and this one is among the best.
Kathy Shogren commented on August 30, 2008 16:44:
Thanks so much Linn and Bob.
Patrice Cigallio Wesa commented on August 30, 2008 20:07:
Wow, what a well timed exceptional image, Kathy! I really like how you captured the exchange of looks between the two and the expression of surprise and fear on the butterfly's little face. Terrific color and detail too. Big congrats on an outstanding and well deserved POTD!
Kathy Shogren commented on August 30, 2008 20:26:
Thank you Patrice.
