“To be rich in admiration and free from envy, to rejoice greatly in the good of others, to love with such generosity of heart that your love is still a dear possession in absence or unkindness – these are the gifts which money cannot buy.” ~Robert Louis Stevenson

It’s like the moon and sun of butterfly!
Cool take Colleen, I didn’t think of it that way!

Sigh…. for the butterfly
Whether dark or light
Take flight!
Thank you for your comment at MY TAKE today Lilli. It is lovely to have a new visitor! I love what I see here and in reading back-log, am sending you healing thoughts and prayers. I have had Rheumatoid Arthritis since childhood and Asthma – complicated by CFS during my 30s. But I’m still standin’!!! In Love and Spirit, YAM xx
Ah yes Yam, then we have a few things in common, thank you for you kind comment and the healing thoughts:)
What a beautiful quote and lovely image! The plant looks very similar to a fairy duster plant that we see in the desert (leaves are a little different). How exciting that you captured not one, but two butterflies! A beautiful work of art ~
Thanks Lindy, I’m not sure what the plant is, took it in a butterfly house in South Carolina. A wonderful outing, photographer heaven!
Stevenson was so right – it’s a great place to strive for. And what a gorgeous photo!
Thanks Talon, I’d never heard that quote before but I love it!
Beautiful! I hate all insects but there is something magical about a Monarch!
Haha Punken, butterflies don’t count as insects in my book, more like tiny fragile birds:)
Sorry! Yes, the Altius Harvest Meet is in Franklin. Also, at this meet if you bring a canned / non-perishable food item, there is a dsociunt on the admission, I believe. All items get donated to a food pantry.
Just beautiful! And I LOVE the quote. I’ve visited Monterey, California when the Monarchs land there during migration. One of the most peaceful things I’ve ever seen or experienced. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I would love to visit a Monarch migration site Taylor. There’s one near us in Ontario, Canada but we’ve never been there at the right time, maybe this year!
ah, love the quote…and great picture as well…i love butter flies…little stained glass sky dancers….there are def gifts that money can not buy…smiles.
Thanks Brian, and you got that right!
Impressive! Perfect timing 🙂
Thanks Amanda!
Wow. Super cool shot!
Thank you Jen!
What an awesome shot – and perfect quote to go along with it. 🙂
The Frog Princess Part 2
It was a fun shoot Stacy, thanks!
It is a beautiful picture and I bet you did have fun taking it! We used to have a fire bush in our yard but I never saw butterflies on it — so pretty. And absolutely the perfect quote to go with it.
I was wondering what that bush was, thanks Kc!

Lovely shot!
Thanks so much Gunilla!
So true. The image goes with the message well.
I so appreciate the comment and visit Marlene!
Motorcycle Waleh still rule Panjab! To throw acid in the face of those opposing his acitnos; well then you can just say he deserved what was coming to him!. Peace is what we need in Panjab, but how can there be peace when we are provoked’ into doing such acts.
– okay, so of course, i love all of them! i do have to say that the one with the older lady peeking around the door with the wine glass is my FAIVTORE! such an amazing picture! award worthy!
Hey Flo! Das stimmt natürlich. Da bleibt nichts anderes übrig als abzuwarten bis es die Cubes in Deutschland gibt…ich versuch da auf dem Laufenden zu bleiben, oder wenn Du sie vorher entdeckst schick mir gerne den Link. Merci und LG! Tornadine
