Clouded Sulphur

We ran a few errands today to get ready for our break but took a few minutes to stop on the road near
Columbine Open Space. As it turned out I got reasonably lucky with what I think is a Clouded Sulphur
Butterfly and a White-Faced Meadowhawk Dragonfly. I couldn't decide which picture I preferred so I've
posted both to let you decide - see below.

The colors in both look great in the lighting you had Dave.

Since both take flight the minute I pull out the camera I think you hit paydirt today, Dave ~v

Both are beautiful, but if I had to vote for just one it would be this one. I like the colors. V

this one is beautiful and excellent.will have a look at the other.

I like them both, The dragonfly is very unusual.
And I like the markings on the butterfly. So putting both up
works best.

From the look in his eye, I think you scarred him. :-) Fantastic shot. :-)

Wow, that's quite the story for "I snapped a picture of a butterfly and a dragonfly today." (Sometimes less is more, Dave-O) MOG

Both are very good, but I just prefer this one as it's bolder.
