Beautiful Butterfly

a beautiful butterfly
landed on my knee;
when it fluttered
it's goodbye,
-it lifted all of me

leaving on the breeze
I also felt so free..

thank you little
butterfly,
thanks,
ephemerally...

@atlantic59 Thank you. The benefits of a telephoto lens. The Butterfly is not disturbed.

@soar2newhighs I took one with my other camera last year on the screen of my gazebo. It's also a Monarch and I took it with my old camera and it's on my facebook but I lost the camera later in the year but I love this telephoto shot. I also got close to a black bear at my clothesline, by getting up wind of it and took the picture about thirty feet from it without scaring her off. Great thrill capturing it's face while it sat on it's haunches scratching it's face while flies hovered around it
