Was just trying to get a regular shot of a butterfly with its wings open. Wasn't even thinking about the contest. So here I am chasing 3 butterflies up and down the garden but because its next to the ocean, the winds were wicked strong and they wouldn't do that slow flexing thing. So I decided to snap just as they fly off. Got this one and then realized I could put it into a challenge .. seeing how I haven't been in one for a while.
