Does anyone else get fed up trying to think of a title for their images...?

Something about the ubiquitous Monarch that lends itself to colors and patterns. This one has landed on a zinnia, with a rich bokeh. enjoy.

Some additional center light via Nik ColorEfx, Luminosity blending via black and white layers and saturation slides. Bokeh is natural, nothing added.
