Sunset in Charleston,WV
It's Spring! Which means I can finally get the camera out more. I have missed it. Yes, I am a fair weather photographer lol. Probably wishful thinking but I hope to get out more with my camera this year. We have a few trips planned that I am excited about.
Ever tried doing a 30 second exposure on a floating dock? It was worth it.

Nature is amazing to me!
I love all the intricate details in butterflies and flowers! And, there’s so many variations of them.
What about you, what do you love most about Nature?

Female Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly
The Tiger Swallowtail is a beautiful, large butterfly, usually in the range of 3.5" - 5.5", easily identified by its black "tiger stripes". Male Eastern Tiger Swallowtails are always yellow, while females may be yellow or black. Females have a splash of iridescent blue wash on their tales, while males do not.
