I have taken a few pictures of butterflies this summer but they have required great effort on my part. Chasing butterflies up and down dirt roads and across fields is not an easy job. They fly faster than you would think they could!

This weekend, I went out in the early morning to look for inspiration in nature. The first dirt road I turned down was a gold mine of nature. Butterflies everywhere! I was excited to see them landing and actually sitting still until I could get the settings right on my camera.

There’s just something about nature in the early morning.
