I couldn't resist -- either taking it -- or entering it because the little fellow was so pretty and perfectly formed, and he did in fact look so still there waiting for the flower to open. I watched him for a long time, and he didn't budge. . .I think certain that that particular flower was "the" one, and worth waiting for.

The quietness and stillness of this image is just amazing! You nailed it!!
I feel like I can reach out and touch that butterfly and flower bud- the clairity and focus makes them look so real. The dark backgroud just adds to the stillness of the image giving it a nice peaceful feel. BRAVO!! 10
