Knowing that I was going to have surgery, I took some time to go out and pre-shoot some images so that I would be able to keep up with my blogs.  Today I am sharing some images taken at the Butterfly World.

I am always amazed at the beauty of creation.  Butterflies encompass that beauty and the unique creativity that we see in this world around us.

The aviary was tropical, hot and humid.  My lens kept fogging up, I was glistening, and overheated, and being bitten by mosquito, but it was so worth the visit.  I may well have to go back in the winter and enjoy spending a couple of hours just watching their beautiful angels flutter around.
