After a meeting on Monday, I went to a nearby park to look for more butterflies.  Being the weather was in the low 90s, and it was sunny, I suspected I’d find a few.  Unfortunately, I only had an hour to spend photographing them.  I love the zen-feel of watching them circle, land, take off, and circle again.  I’ve learned to watch their flight paths and can pretty much can tell where they will land next.  I also know that photographing them prior to 5 p.m. means they will be far more active, bouncing from flower to flower.  After 5 they tend to stay put longer.  Alas, I only had an hour prior to five and then needed to head back to work.  Even so, it was a lovely break.  Tomorrow I head to England for a week.  When I get back, I look forward to spending a couple afternoons photographing more.
