Butterfly

One beautiful Sunday afternoon in Sonoma County, I was inspired by a friend to take pictures of butterflies alighting on the flowers at the winery. Inspired by a friend and a rather generous wine tasting, I should say. It was so windy I actually held the stalk of the flower to steady it while photographing one-handed. The flower was still blowing around but with a number of attempts and a very patient butterfly I finally got the focus right.
