Description: The image of the beautiful Malay Lacewing Butterfly was captured at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland in September of 2010 with the Nikon D300 and the 70-300mm vr Nikon lens at 200mm. The leaves of the River Birch tree were taken as I sipped my coffee and waited for the humming birds on my back deck in Montgomery County, Maryland with the Nikon D300 and the 70-300mm vr Nikon lens. Images combined in Photoshop CS4 with much play and tinkering there as well as Adobe Camera Raw and Nikons NX2. My thanks to Leslie Nicole, Florabella and Flypaper for the great textures.
Just gorgeous...It would be great fun to see if I could pick out your work at The Yellow Dog Tavern...especially after a couple of brews n crab cakes. Have fun..wish I could be there.
HAHHA .. you probably could ... as I'm pretty sure I could yours as well!!!!! Well, i'll raise a beer to you tomorrow night ... if you hear a distinct clinking sound, you'll know what it is!!!!! thanks ever so!!!!!
thank you, sweetie ... the leaves and the greens are nearly as the camera captured it as I sat sipping coffee on the back deck ... i had to add the butterfly, though ... you know me ... leave well enough alone?? Never!!! LOL!!!!
