    • Congratulations on being featured with this beautiful photo of this colorful butterfly. I finally captured a photo of a butterfly in my garden...I just posted it. Since I am still a beginner in photography, I didn't realize how hard it was to photograph one...so I really appreciate seeing a "pro" shot like this one.
