Nice pics Colourmegrae, I like to photo my flowers also. I really like the butterfly. I can never seem to get good ones of mine. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! I used to live in an area where there were ponds and basic swamp land at every corner with beautiful flowers growing wild like that.

I do like to see sepia and black and white photographs as they give far more depth to pictures than colour ever does. My favourites are the butterfly and the waterlily. I hope you will show us more of your photographs again soon. Stew Face 1

Thank you Miss Eileen. I love the butterfly photo as well...I'm surprised it stayed there long enough for me to snap the picture. It sure was interested in it's lunch. Wink

Nice and artsy fotos. The sepia and black and white give them a totally different feel.

Very nice! I find that I admire the texture and style a lot more when the photos are sepia or black-and-white. With colour photos, all I see is the colour. Laughing
