IMG_7778 - Butterfly IN FLIGHT with shadow

Butterfly IN FLIGHT with shadowI have others in my "Butterflies - IN FLIGHT" set that are closer cropped (and shot). I purposefully left the shadow. Capturing the butterfly IN FLIGHT is a challenge, but so few have a discernible shadow. I did get pretty LUCKY with that (so I left it in a few of the shots).In a group last night someone said that my "brown" Butterfly - IN FLIGHT shot was lucky. So, with camera in hand, I went to the lake for about 30 mintues today... out of 200 clicks (not all of Butterflies - IN FLIGHT, I have these 48 IN FLIGHT shots I'm very happy with (as shot, only cropped), another 60 that have some blur, and fewer than 60 that I had to toss because they were grossly out of focus or frame. Now, if I could just get this "LUCKY" at the lottery! I do hope you enjoy these shots. I was lucky to flind some willing participants that choose to stick around for the photo shot, and pose so wonderfully!
