I finally got outside yesterday. I was not able to do much over the last week so was very happy to get outside for any amount of time. All were taken hand held using my Canon 5Ds with a Tamron 70-210mm lens. ALL C&C is welcome and the details will be with each photo. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and take a look at my efforts to photograph these beautiful butterflies.

Thank you, Donna. I did not realize that the title is in error referencing Hummers instead of Butter. Your three thumbs up are a fantastic rating of my efforts, thank you for that.

Thank you, Doc for your comments about my photo efforts and my physical self. I went to my heart surgeon last week and I go back for an EKG on Tuesday. He changed my meds due to the amount of water I am holding and the slight pain I get now and then in my chest. He is not overly concerned or he would have done it the same day. I pray he is correct.

Ken, thank you for stopping by, however, how are you doing with this latest storm? I was surprised when Donna commented but did not expect you to be able. I based that on the last photos of your home and surrounding area of trees. How is it going for you this time around?
