Lovely iridescent shading on those wings.

What a beautiful picture; do you have a fancy camera?
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

The butterfly is very lovely. :)

If asked to name a flower grown in Japan I dont think Cosmos would be one that came quickly to my mind :D

I was just lucky. My camera isn't really posh :) but 7.2 megapixels was very fancy 6 years ago :D
