finally!

My first insect picture.
I took a few blip prospects today, but didn't really like what I had. It is my greatest complaint about my point and shoot; the sacrifice of a viewfinder. Sometimes I know when I've captured 'the shot', but more often than not I have to take many many photos and wait until I view them on the computer to find the one I like. So, out in the back yard I went trying to find something worth submitting. Then I saw the butterfly. There I am, chasing it around the yard and wondering if the neighbors see me. Finally it stopped and let me come in close. Very close. Like it had pity on me.
Thank you Mr. Butterfly. I appreciate it.
