Monastic butterfly

Taken in the garden of the Franciscan Monastery in northeast Washington, a beautiful place we didn’t even know existed before Saturday. I didn't have the right lens with me so all my pictures had to be significantly cropped.

Best to view in "Original" or “Auto” because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Just opening, posted earlier:

Nikon Z 7 ,Nikkor Z 24-70 f2.8 S
1/2500s f/2.8 at 70.0mm iso160 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Gorgeous color and crispness. It doesn't suffer at all from the crop that I can see.
