This is an old shot (1996) that I set up in a birdbath in our back yard. We found the monarch dead in the yard but in amazingly good condition. All comments welcome and appreciated. ><>

Hi Bill, I really like the composition of this image. It's colorful and has a number of fun ingredients like the Monarch, the pinecone, and the feather. As always Bill, I enjoy your images. :toast:

Nicely done. All the items are well placed, and the Monarch seems to fit in naturally.

Well composed, and very colourful. Is there any symbolism here? Whenever I see a white feather I think of a Guardian Angel.

Wow Bill, now that's a butterfly photo to aspire to. Love the colors -- love the feather.

You've weaved a wonderful tapestry of colors with this image Bill.
The vivid colors are just as pleasing to the eye today, as they were 13 years ago..
I would've left the dead part out, one cannot tell:wink:
Nice work :toast:
