Flutter-Bye

I was down in Philly visiting my girlfriend's sister, helping out with house renovations. We went out and tried to grab a few shots of the city, but I did not get any that I felt turned out very well. Then, on the day that we are going to leave we saw this butterfly enjoying some local flowers. My girlfriend yells at me to grab my camera and come over and take a look. Sure enough, there is this friendly little guy (and eventually a second one) out sucking up some nectar in the garden. Oddly enough, the only good shots I got from the trip were in this garden, and had nothing to do with Philly itself. That, and it was super hot and muggy out, so the photos were a great way to relax from working on the house. Also, not sure what he is doing with his leg here... but whatever, he looks happy haha.

 

As usual, any and all criticisms are welcome. I hope you enjoy! :)
