These are tough butterflies to get pictures of - they rarely stop moving, and even when they do, their small size and birght white still make it a challenge.
This one is my favorite of the batch.
Part of a quick little set of experiments using long exposures in a dark room exposed to colorful light sources (leds on computers and optical mouse laser light).
Oxidized sterling silver recycled custom chain links with many hand wired 5mm faceted labradorite and turquoise rondels on vintage brass head pins.
Part of a hat/coat stand as guessed by 'Mike' with credit also to fhuell. See comments below for wider views.

A slightly different processing from me. I originally planned to not do any processing, then I wanted to do selective color on the flag, then I went with this. I guess it is desaturated selective color. This is one of those shots that's been done a lot, and I always tend to like it. The first time I saw it and it really grabbed my attention was a shot THE real Ryan Myers did. Then the first or second time I shot with Ward/Dustin he got a shot of a flag that I had struggled in vain to shoot for about ten minutes.
MSR & newly deboxed NP (with Simply Lilac scalp). Now they are pastel-haired sisters too. Both wearing Chuthings. Just had a hair wash here.
Casting around the house for subjects to photograph, I found this by accident. Well - I know it's ALWAYS been in my bathroom, but I never realised quite how photogenic my window was! I leant against the wall to shoot something else entirely, and caught sight of the textures of the glass... The rest is history. :-D
These images are all about playing with translucency. The leaf has been placed on a piece of glass put between two tressles. A soft box is used to illuminate the leaf from below, with metering for the light, not the leaf.
I have had a lot of fun with these and will now try a few different scenarios.
