2. Oh, that's simply gorgeous!

And what a great job you did with only one chance!

3. Beautiful! The trip in to get your camera must have been quick; usually when

I see a butterfly, or even a bee, by the time I go in a for my camera and go back out to get what I think would be such a great shot --- poof, there gone. You were lucky to get such a good close up! Thanks for sharing.

4. Usually when I leave the house my OMD is attached to my left arm with the 12-100 on

it. That was the case today as I took a short walk to check out the blooms on a Century Plant a block or so away. I had less than a minute with Monarch.

When I don't have the OMD I have my Samsung 10e which does a credible job.

Long story why but I do my best to never be without some kind of camera.

7. That's so wonderful -- while you're out and about -- you so appreciate the

beauty of nature and are equipped to take pleasure in the moment as well.

8. What's that old meme? The more you prepare the luckier you get?

I try to never be without a camera of some kind.

10. I think that's right. My brother would tell me -- that it's

amazing - it seems the harder I work the luckier I get.

5. Oh how lucky, my dear flamin lib!

And even though you both were moving quickly, this image is just gorgeous.

Perfect bokeh too!
