Vuylstekeara Rudra crossed with Odontoglossum Clonius, a hybrid made in 1931 and often cloned since.

This was taken at the Pacific Science Center in Seattle. I believe I have the identification correct and if so the Latin name is Anartia amathea. This shot was taken in a darker area of the butterfly house and though shot at an ISO of 1600 it was hard to get good depth of field. I am not particularly proud of the picture, but wanted to post a butterfly today and this photo caught my eye in my archives.

Also known as Skyrocket, Ipomopsis aggregata is a common midsummer mountain wildflower. We saw and photographed these along the old Blewett Road in the Cascades. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2012/08/old-blewett...
