Just a bunch more pix of Jake with a butterfly
The ONLY good thing about the temperatures this time of year is that it's useful for photos of butterflies. It's cold enough that the new hatchlings are kinda sluggish. Once they were settled I could actually tote Jake around with them hanging onto him. But one unex-pected challenge was that little butterfly claws have a tough time gripping plastic hands and arms!
And I left the knife inside so as not to lose it -- enough to do, to take care of the butterfly on this shoot.
Another version of the movie-inspired shot. They really had trouble on his arms & wanted to climb onto his head!
He put her on the tree to await the morning sun when we were finished.
(Dang, I just realized it's getting a bit late to try those "other locations" I thought of... it will soon be deer season (eyeroll) & going in the woods is not so fun.)
Thanks for looking!
