The Visitor



While taking some still life photos for a possible future painting, I had a visitor. The butterfly just made him/her self at home and I got several good shots. I wanted to share one with my blogger friends. Click on the photo for a larger view.

Isn't it wonderful when you have a "happy accident?" This is a gorgeous photo. I love the bowl and the flower and "The Visitor."

Have fun painting it!

Gorgeous combination of colours and great photo opportunity. We both seem to be into butterflies of late.

Thanks Candy, Judith, Jane and Joan. I think it was the "perfect touch". Joan there are hints of autumn and butterflies are everywhere. I am starting to see "extra" hummingbirds too!
