I took one look at that pic and knew it was in NC. I immediately looked to see if you put your location in info. Yes, in answer to your question :)

Wow...this is the first ever orange version of this I have seen. I spotted it from half a mile away. Pretty hard to miss. I gather these are common in the Raleigh area?

Dan, obviously we have very diffent quality standards ;) I would be very pleased with these shots. :D I would say it's more a quesion of cropping (and that is very much subjective).

Thanks Olli....the wind was blowing 30-40 mph gusts and I had the wrong lenses on the bodies. I had to stop in a spot with no place to pull off...with fairly heavy traffic, which lead to a rushed couple of shots. The colors were just so vibrant and there were all sorts of butterflys coming in. Oh well....I was just a bit disappointed that I wasn't better able to capture the moment!
