These are all worthy of printing and framing Sherry. I think that first one is calling me to paint it. Of course the one with the cosmos is great too. Getting the light right in a painting would be a challenge and quite the reward if I could do it.
Dear Sherry....the colour combinations are beautiful and speak of autumn......to take a print and frame it will be a lovely reminder of your butterfly friends......
Sherry- Thanks for the monarch photos. They're all beautiful but that top one is exquisite.
Okay, on the list for next year...sunflowers, cosmos, tithonia, butterfly bush, asclepias ....and of course, lantana again. Maybe a more powerful camera too. Ha ha ha. I do like looking at your photos to see if I can find the same guys in my backyard. :-)
Yes, I would print all pictures and make a collage. Just beautiful the colour and I love sunflowers. Every year I plant some seeds, but never get any sunflowers to bloom. Why?? Because of the squirrels, nice to watch but not in my garden.
Sherry, You could have a whole wall of butterfly prints! That would be a cheery thing to look at in the cold of winter. I love monarchs; we haven't seen many this year around here.
These are perfct examples to illustrate Indian Summer; and absolutely stunning. They just warm a person's insides just to look at them! Everytime you share in your posts, you make this world a more beautiful place. Thanks from all of us, Sherry. Love, V.
Dear Lynne, I did one 8x10 of the Sunflower and the Monarch up close. I am very pleased with it! It is in a large frame with a mat. I will store it in my August decorations. Now to do the others! Sherry
Dear Mary, LOL. I have framed many of my pictures. I do have many for August; I just really liked the Sunflower and the Monarch. The cosmos is nice too... Sherry
Dear Cheryl, I did end up printing all four. I did one 8x10 and the others as 3 1/2 x 5's. I have very cute sunflower frames for the smaller ones too. Very fun! Sherry
Dear Gisela, I do like the idea of making a collage. I used to do them. Maybe a bit of creative work is in order here. Thank you for the idea. The squirrels can be a big bother. They also eat my sunflowers. I try to plant lots and make sure there are lots of nuts about. Still some years if the squirrels do not get my sunflowers the deer do! This year I tucked a bunch of sunflowers right next to the house. So far so good! Sherry
Dear Rose, This winter I hope to begin my butterfly life list. It would be nice to do a wall of butterflies! Hummm...I always miss my bug friends come winter. Good idea. Sherry
Dear Vikki, Thank you! I enjoy sharing all the beautiful bugs and birds that visit my backyard. Your comment warmed my heart. Thank you Vikki! Hugs, Sherry
All beautiful captures Q! They should all be printed and framed! The third shot is my fav...the way the light is coming through the monarchs wings & the cosmo..stunning image! Great job! Cat
They are all beautiful and worthy of printing- how will you choose?
ReplyDeleteThat top one is wonderful!!! Could send that one through Painter to see what I get

Sherry, if you printed and framed every on worth framing, you could fill the walls of the White House.
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing. They're beautiful.

Dear Cat,
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love the light shining through the wings too. I tend to take lots of these sort of shots.
Sherry
It's such a pleasure to see these perfect pictures of beauty!
ReplyDeleteDear Barbara,
ReplyDeleteThe Monarchs are exciting to watch as they prepare to head south for the winter. My yard has lots of milkweed for them too!
