I believe this is a Monarch. It hung around my plants out front for at least 10 minutes and wasn't the least bit camera shy.

My camera, which has been on its last legs, is still alive. Every time I turn it on, I have my fingers crossed.

so, the butterfly pictures w/ all the colors was certainly a welcome breath of fresh air and brightness!

An ancient Sony Mavica that uses floppies! I've just started looking for a new camera and, let me tell ya, in the past 9 years things have really changed.

I had thought about getting a DSLR but I think I'm going to stick with the regular digital ones. The DSLR's and so expensive and way too technical for a person like me who just wants to point and shoot.
