The above is a Common Yellow Grass Butterfly.
I've seen a butterfly emerged from its chrysalis, underneath a leaf.
The position was similar to the above.
The position was similar to the above.
However, on a closer look, this yellow butterfly is not being born.
It is dying, gripped tightly by a purple spider.
Isn't it strange how similar birth and death is for this butterfly?

That last shot is just gorgeous - the composition, colors, and bokeh are all terrific.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely!
ReplyDeleteVery unique capture and perspective.
ReplyDeleteAmazing wonderful photos. The colors are just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI am very familiar with those yellow butterflies, and they always elude my camera. They are so small and yet you captured it very well, and not only that! You captured a link in the food web. That somehow is morbid, it's good you saved the best for last! I love the blue bokeh of the sky behind it, very beautiful. I love it. Again, my lens will not be able to do justice to those sizes of critters!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Great job!
ReplyDeleteLove your close-ups. Your photos are always a joy to review!
ReplyDeleteCommon but no less beautiful. Great post!
