10/21: flickering flight

For awhile this afternoon Chris and I set on the deck, watching the aura of activity around the asters.  So many winged things flying among the blooms!  The flowers themselves seemed to twinkle as a result.  This particular butterfly seemed to know when I was focusing my camera on it, so it kept flitting just as I was about to take a picture.

Thanks, Barbara--I think this one of the butterfly-in-motion is my current favorite (but it might be that whatever photo is my most recent one is my current favorite). In any case, I'm lucky that my camera has a good zooooom.
