Why isn't this on the front page? Ribbon quality as far as I'm concerned. Beautiful shot. It's a cardinal right? Wish we got those in Scotland, such lovely birds.

I may be partial to dogs =) But I was hoping someone would do this. I had the same idea but knew I could not get my pomeranian to sit still long enough lol. So great job, I love this image, and it is excellent in B&W.

1) That is a great looking dog.

2) This is a really well captured and balanced photo. I think the framing is great, the reflection is subtle but adds quite a bit, and the way you focused on the eye is phenomenal. I've only voted on a few so far, but this is an early favorite for me!

Just Another Butterfly Picture

Comment by sempermarine:
A little over a year ago I lost a friend, who was a U.S. Marine. While attending his funeral I was sitting next to his young daughter and a butterfly (yellow swallowtail) landed on the shoulder of one of the Marines holding the casket. That butterfly didn't move at all during the entire process of folding his flag. Only after the flag was completely folded and presented to his wife did it finally fly off. The best part of this experience was the fact that this little butterfly was seen by his daughter and gave her comfort that her dad was looking over her. Thanks for reminding me of him and those times I shared with him. We do miss him. Thanks
