Description
The formal gardens at Oglebay Park in Wheeling, West Virginia are beautiful in every season. The summer season brings the added bonus of butterflies. I took a lot of images trying to catch one in flight and this is what I eventually captured.

This photo of a yellow butterfly in flight against a backdrop of white flowers is a breathtaking symphony of color and grace. The vibrant yellow wings of the butterfly create a striking contrast against the pure white blooms, evoking a sense of natural harmony. The delicate moment captured in flight adds an ethereal quality to the scene, embodying the fleeting beauty of nature. It's a visual poem that celebrates the elegance and vibrancy of butterflies, inviting viewers to appreciate the magical dance of these delicate creatures amidst the serenity of white blossoms.

What a shot! And this is one of the prettiest I have seen of the Dogface Butterfly, with such soft colors!

Looking at a photograph as serenely beautiful as "Butterfly in Flight," has a way of making one forget (for a while anyway) about the turmoil disrupting the rest of the world. Splendid work.
