Shining colors and good detail!
Mary MacADNski: Gracias, Jose-Angel
This is a really beautiful image Mary, I am really liking this. I wish you had captured less of the flower top left though grin
Mary MacADNski: I could have cropped this but it went straight from my camera to the blog. I wish I'd weeded first too. LOL
Mary, this is one of your best. Thanks for sharing it. For some reason this day's crop of photos is outstanding...
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Larry. Really good photos today, I agree.

Love it!
Very happy you left the weeds in place too...milkweed might be what attracted the butterfly.
Mary MacADNski: That's true, Ray, and it was my day off after all.

Congratulations, Mary, on your first butterfly! That's gotta feel good. smile
Mary MacADNski: She be a tiny butterfly. Maybe a bigger one will come along some day.
A butterfly on echinacea, what a wonderful photo!
Mary MacADNski: Ecinacia seems to be the flower of the month. Thanks for the nice comment.

Mary MacADNski: There is no colour like the cones of the echinacia.

A good crop would get rid of the weeds as well tongue I wish weeding was so easy. The crop would also bring the butterfly closer. I have also tried to catch a flitty flier this past weekend and will put it up at some stage.

Nice colours and pictures. Your Fe stones always draw my attention.
Mary MacADNski: I'll play around with a crop on this at some time of leisure and maybe post the creation.....this winter.

love the image Mary, it's a beauty.

Love the song to! I guess that you know the film Paris Texas! But some of the music that he and Arlen Roth put together was amazing. mal
Mary MacADNski: I don't know the movie, mal but I know Cooder's music. Fabulous!
Lovely natural image, Mary. Beautiful flowers with a `bonus` butterfly! (:o)
Mary MacADNski: They are lovely flowers. The colours of the cones are my favorite aspect and that they last forever.
Beautiful!
The most plentiful butterflies we have here are cabbage butteflies. Wish we had some like the one in your beautiful photo!
Mary MacADNski: We have lots of cabbage ones too. I don't know what kind this is. It's small and a bit shy.
Poetic landing ! smile
Mary MacADNski: LOL Thanks, Florence.
