Weekly Photo Challenge: Hands
The word this week is: Hands.
This is one of my favorite photos. I captured this at Butterfly World, in Coconut Creek, Florida. The butterflies fly all around you and sometimes, if you’re really really lucky, they’ll land on you. A docent once told me they are attracted to perfumes and to people who stand very still while donning a flowery outfit.
Basically, if you want a better chance to attract a butterfly, smell and dress like a rose!
This butterfly lighted on this little hand and I was delighted to be in the right place at the right time to capture it!

breath-taking andrea!
Thank you, Dadirri! 🙂
Ahhhh…nice and cute shot!
Hi Nenskei, Thanks a bunch!
How did you take the picture? Amazing…
Hi Albadr… Well, I think it was mostly luck! The little girl was just standing, amazed, that this little butterfly landed on her finger. I was in awe, too. – Sometimes when I see a really amazing shot, I get so nervous and excited I miss the shot. But the little girl and her mother saw my camera, and they managed to hold perfectly still, waiting for me while I snapped away. It wasn’t long before the butterfly flew off, so I was grateful that my excitement didn’t get the better of me and I got the shot!
Smell and look like a rose…. very pretty indeed. 🙂 Wonderful picture. Thank you for sharing!
