Crescent Pearl on Coneflower

[jeffashman]

Went outside between storms and caught this. My coneflowers have come up more red than purple this year, but I'm OK with that.

Beautiful! This is a very nice shot. I'd say the overcast skies helped you get some lovely light here.

Thank you! The wet petals were a plus for me. I'm not sure where these little butterflies disappear to when it downpours, but even in the slightest break, they come out from hiding and flit about.

Nice shot. I've been trying to shoot some butterflies but just not many around here.

Thanks! I've been specifically planting to attract butterflies and hummingbirds. So far, no hummingbirds.

They are pretty little things.
