 Poor thing. I found him caught under my windshield wiper. I tried to make him look pretty, but you can only do so much with dried and fading. So I just went for the fragile look.

Good color and grain. I wonder how this would be really tightly cropped so that you just see the wood and the body.

Oh darn!!! He is a beautiful one too. The dried, faded processing works perfectly with this scene since it shows a beautiful little creature faded from this life. sniffle sniffle.

You captured the fragile death perfectly. Poor butterfly. Nice tribute.

Exquisite processing - I really like it alot!! They are terribly fragile and short-lived, but bring such beauty while they're here. Wonderful shot, wonderfully presented, and so NOT a snapshot.

Processing works great. I love that you laid her on that lovely green table. Makes for a very nice color palette.

Yup, must be a common butterfly. Really terrific color palette, and the grain is interesting, too.
