This is a breath taking photo. I have never seen a clouded sulfur butterfly. You should be very proud of the quality of your work.

Marvelous 2 for one shot! I do not know the plant but it is very pretty.

It sure looks like the milkweed we have around our lakes that the butterflies love so much. Your two certainly are attracted to it! And that bee - or whatever he is - to the left - wow! How fun to have a surprise guest in the photo! ~Sue

Yellow butterflies? so rear ,never so such one - and the shot is just great as usuel.

said ranyaari100 11 months 28 days ago

Very nice shot. I've never seen these butterflies before. It almost looks as if the bug is watching and saying "Hey, I want some of that milkweekd too"

said idelsoni 11 months 28 days ago

My godness, Sharon with this kind of shots you touch my heart. I like the close up with fuzzy background, the bright greens the pastel flowers and butterflies.You got the bug additional. When I took wildflower shots next the trail between fields I noticed later what all I got, some more bugs I had first seen.

What a ripper photo mate! I absolutely love it. Never seen butterflies like that before and they are just beautiful. The colours in this photo all seem to balance each other out somehow - nice work!

GORGEOUS!!!!

said KrisApplegate 2007.09.08 at 10:17:31 PDT

You got it, Lady. It is positively a variety of the Swamp Milkweed. Asclepsis incarnata. You need to collect some of the seed pods. They make gorgeous dried arrangements. And you might want to plant some in your yard. This is a lovely shot. I think you got some that I am having trouble catching. Those smaller ones are a real pain to get and you got TWO!!!!

Two beautiful butterflies on a shot.Lovely Sharon!!Jozef

said joznig 2007.09.08 at 09:35:36 PDT

What a great capture, one only has to keep their eyes open and there is something beautiful!!!

said hamiltrudy1 2007.09.08 at 08:44:03 PDT

We love these beautiful yellow butterflies and we would like to take such lovely photos from them as you have... but they are so nervous that we never get good shots! Also the plant is beautiful! There are probably different species of this beautiful flowers. Have you seen the new Milkweed Album of Marion? (marionw104102)

said oertlif_3 2007.09.08 at 04:52:43 PDT

The yellow butterflies are so pretty on those pink flowers!

said loriarnold101 2007.09.08 at 02:21:36 PDT

Lovely golden glow in those wings

said kelvinnz 2007.09.07 at 21:40:33 PDT

Love those yellow butterflies, well done Sharon.

said umpa1 2007.09.07 at 20:54:37 PDT

Lovely butts. And an added bug as well. I don't know alot about milkweed. But the flowers say milkweed..... Lovely set of three.

said 63MissMimi19 2007.09.07 at 20:00:42 PDT

These are so pretty! And the bug is great too. A nice photo.

said velcrogirl 2007.09.07 at 17:12:10 PDT

Excellent shot. The bug is cute but love the yellow butterflies! Wonderful photo.

said sharwils2 2007.09.07 at 16:35:38 PDT

Your eyes are drawn to the beauty and contrast of the yellow butterflies and lovely pink flowers that it was easy to over look the interesting little bug.I don't know what the flowers are but they are lovely and delicate and we do have these butterflies in Australia they are tiny....Sandra

said sandrajacktrips 2007.09.07 at 15:24:03 PDT

Two in a shot....! It is perfect, Sharon. I liked your three for the week. Love. Claudia

said sstarlights 2007.09.07 at 15:13:43 PDT

Bonjour Sharon! Another great shot this week! I love the contrast with the yellow butterflies and the mauve of the flowers!

said luvnartusa 2007.09.07 at 00:31:12 PDT

I just wonder how you manage to get photos like these Sharon. This is a great shot my friend - and I love your colors. A great sample for a butterfly collection.Well done.

said anttisarki 2007.09.06 at 23:06:09 PDT

Love the yellow butterflies, Sharon. Another colorful shot with these beautiful wildflowers. I think for sure it is a milkweed plant but I'm not familiar with the swamp variety. It's a beauty for sure. Wishing you a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Susie
