#282.
With this I tried to achieve a kind of fisheye-ish effect, except I don't have a fisheye lense. Just toying with the perspective a little. Old board games are good for that kind of thing.
You need not comment on this if you already did. Or even if you did not for that matter. I had posted this and the two shots below through Lightroom 4's Publishing function, and it seems that somehow I deleted them without realizing it. This has happened twice now with Lightroom pictures, and now I am paranoid and will have to check my entire butterfly set. Sheesh. Anyway, this was species #19 for the year when I posted it. Still is, just out of order now.
Question mark is the common name of this beautiful butterfly. I was in my back yard when a I saw this flash of bright orange land on my back fence; of course, I went to get my camera. When I tried to take a picture he flew away and seconds later, landed on my hand. My camera lenses was a 70-210 and my arm was not long enough to distance it from the camera to focus. After 5 minutes or so, he flew away and then landed briefly on the fence for this shot.
Is that a question mark???
Cole and I went to the Alamo Drafthouse today (the only way to see a move) to see SuperBad. Laugh-out-loud funny if you appreciate raunchy, teenage humor at all...
This was in a stall in the ladies' room. Makes me sad to think that may be a question mark for Michelle and Rob...
Comma? Question mark? Some kind of lepidopteran punctuation. Whatever he is, he looks like he had a pretty rough Friday night!

The Question, one of my favorite DC heroes, drawn by Bruce Timm for me at the San Diego Comic-Con 2007.
Seen along a woodland path at Sapsucker Woods. I submitted these two shots to BugGuide.net for identification -- thanks, Pauline, for the suggestion! -- and within 15 minutes I had my answer: This is a Question Mark butterfly. "Adult Food: Rotting fruit, tree sap, dung, carrion. Only when these are unavailable do Question Marks visit flowers such as common milkweed, aster, and sweet pepperbush."
