Coming in for a Landing

Coming in for a Landing
Saturday Self-Challenge: Anything that flies or floats in the air.

This was a much harder challenge than I thought it would be initially. We had a swarm of Mayflies mating a couple of nights ago, but I wasn't happy with any of the photos because I couldn't get a decent one of them actually flying. So I went outside yesterday morning and tried capturing a butterfly in mid-flight with mixed results. This one is the best of the bunch.

Have a good weekend, everyone! Hugs to Marie-claire and Pam! :-)

Thanks, Jenny. It stayed on for a split second and flitted around to the next flower. I had to use a special setting on my camera that captures fast action. It was still incredibly hard to do!

CONGRATULATIONS ON GETTING A FLYING BUTTERFLY PICTURE!!! *high five*
Who doesn't know how hard this is to do?! WELL DONE!!!
Oddly enough, I looked this song up on YouTube just a few minutes ago, it's called :Butterfly" and though the video isn't all that interesting, I'm crazy about the song! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh67VWfRQU0&list=RDxh67VWfRQU0&start_radio=1

(I really wanted to see the lyrics, they are clickable in the "More" area of the description if you're interested)

Wow, you saw a swarming of mayflies, how cool!! I look forward to seeing your pictures!

Thank you for the affectionate welcome home, it's so nice to be back because I have INTERNET again! :D I hope you've been doing well my dear. So nice to see your pictures again and to chat with you!! *hugs*

Grats on your success for the challenge...the other day I saw a lovely butterfly land on a branch but naturally, just as I was close though for a picture it laughed and flew away! ARGH! :D
