I like this but to me it almost looks fake, even if it's not it's just so surreal a butterfly being in a completely unnatural environment for itself. Great capture and I like those glass pieces, wherever did you find them?

Idoc,
When I walked by and saw this it hit me that it does not look natural and how out of place the butterfly was.

The glass is by an artist named Dale Chihuly. http://www.chihuly.com

He currently has an exhibit at the Franklin Park Conservatory

The conservatory is also having their butterfly exhibit. So it made for an interesting afternoon.

great photo!


we had a chihuly show here in charlotte a few years back and it was wonderful ... this exhibt mixing in trees with his sea-life forms must be very surreal.
