Hold Still

June 22, 2013 · by Photography By Steve daPonte · in Inspirational, Nature Photography. ·

The butterfly is so challenging to photograph as they rarely hold still. Constantly moving from flower to flower, wings fluttering, darting and diving. But, sometimes shear will and patience pays off and the reward is a beautiful moment captured to share with friends.

Thank you butterfly!
