Gorgeous Scarlet Swallowtail / Papilio rumanzovia on a beautiful Water Lily at the Calgary Zoo. Yes, it was just one of those rare, lucky moments : ) It was interesting to see that the Water Lily closed up like this when the butterfly perched there. The light wasn't the best, as I had to bend and peer through Sacred Lotus leaves and other plants to get my photos. To me, it has a slight watercolour painting look, especially the Lily petals. Taken on 6 October 2012, in the ENMAX Conservatory. Added later in the afternoon - I was just trying to find someone's e-mail address and came across this link that I had saved ages ago. I don't know if you have seen this video spoof of the Royal Wedding before, but English folks especially will find this amusing. I think Princess Anne, Harry and Camilla are amazing, lol! I think I posted this link ages ago, but it made me laugh again just now. youtu.be/Kav0FEhtLug
