Citrus Butterfly

There are many butterflies in the garden.

This is a citrus butterfly which has been very accommodative in allowing its photos to be taken from various angles.

It takes several weeks for an egg to eventually become a butterfly but  it survives only about 5 days in this beautiful state.

  

Happy Family

This photo came about because I found two heart-shaped potatoes.

Since they looked kind of lonely, I added an onion, a garlic and some bird's eye chillies.

Don't they look like a Happy Family now posing under a crystal tree?

I am entering this photo in GGW Picture this Contest.

The topic of the contest is "Lighting : A Closer Look".

If you look closely, you can actually see the reflection of this Happy Family.
