"Paint Me," they plead.

It was so hot the day I took these that it was a study in patience and perserverance just to wait for them to stop fluttering long enough to push the shutter. The first one is a tad out of focus for photography purposes; but painting should be great.

Enjoy the butterflies.

A floating acrylic to boot.

Again, not original tonight (less then 5 minutes of work; had to do some cleanup).
