I was playing with Photoshop today and photomanipulated this. It should look like a realistic butterfly perched on a watercolor-ish flower cluster. What do you think?
The butterfly is a Red Admiral (Vanessa atalanta). I’m not sure what the flower is, but it’s one of those common landscaping flowers you see in planters and beds all over the place. I took this photo at a mini-golf course last summer in Sister Bay, Wisconsin.
Quite beautiful. 😉
