returns with the Crown & the
King retires in his apartment
& the folding doors that remained
open during the Coronation
then shut. I should have made
another observation that before
the King makes his appearance
there is two Cocks that flutter
their wings & two side doors
open & two men come out
that strikes the hour.
We saw the Kings Playhouse
which is in the Palace when
it is lighted their is upwards
of Three thousand lights.
We afterwards went into a
superb Gallery of different
Rooms & every Room is finely
decorated with Gold corniches
& borderings. Each Room contains
the different concerns of each
Nations; adorned with the
Pictures of each King, Emperors
Pope & Princes that now Reign
with the Capital City of their
different Kingdoms & principalities
Next came to the Orange grove
all the Trees were out in the
Garden, not less than 200 in
number, which was a fine view
as they were all very large Trees.
On return to Paris we came to
Saint Cloud, which is a Palace
belonging to the present Queen
of France, purchased of the
late Duke of Orleans.
The Cascades, fountains & other
displays of Water far exceeds
those of Versailles, there is one
fountain that rises the Water
upwards of 200 feet & falls down
like rain, there is one particular
place that exceeds almost all
Butterfly in motion. I like how the blur came out--it looks like the butterfly is disturbing the atmosphere as it flutters its wings :) This was taken at the Butterfly Garden at Strong National Museum of Play (Rochester, NY). Prints of this photo are available here.
I didn't notice until I opened this photo in Photoshop that I captured this insect's wings in motion. :o)

Sugarberry is one of my favourite My Little Ponies, so I thought it would be perfect idea to spend my only flutter bait to her. I used Citadel and Folk Art acrylic paints to her body, and her hair is from Dollyhair.
their little lion faces smile at you when the catch the breeze. so charming, they make my heart leap. these had some awesome name that of course flew right out of my head.
I have just purchased a lovely new Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro lens and these are the first exposures through it...

The littlest one flipped itself out of the nest and was dangling on the side--I was able to put it back in the nest while Mama squawked and fluttered like crazy. It was so tiny and warm....
Flutter is the sound these guys make when they find themselves trapped in a corner of ones thatch roof. Flutter goes on all night and no matter how hard one tries to find him he can not be detected, until the next morning when it is too late. The upside is that by this time he is so fatigued that he becomes extremely cooperative and makes an excellent photographic model. That his wings were not shredded given all the noise all night long is a mystery. He really is a beautiful subject. I enjoyed photographing him after which he was released into the undergrowth outside.
