Small butterfly on yellow flower

[jriepe]

During the warm months I am out on an almost daily basis with my macro lens looking for something to shoot. Because of the railroad tracks, the Interstate highway and the airport there are areas where there is nothing but weeds and wildflowers very close to my house. Of course these attract many different species of insects and this shot is one of my favorites from this past summer. I do believe I cloned out the small yellow flower at the top of the picture after I posted to photobucket but never went back to upload the edited one.

Thanks Thunder and Paige and thank you Sharon for the like received. Thunder I don't know what kind this is. I really should get into the habit of researching the things I shoot so I will know what I have just shot.
