This was taken in a Butterfly Arboretum. This large butterfly is unremarkable when it closes it’s wings but when it lands for that split second and opens, the blue color is extraordinary and actually much deeper in color than this photo suggests. Arboretums are easier in that you have many more chances to grab a shot but it was so hot in there that my lens and glasses kept fogging up.
