Really like the colors on this. Not too overdone. Very subtle as others have pointed out. This shot more than works, its great man. ;-)a

Thanks a lot AC.... Man are you in a great neck of the woods.... I will never forget my visit to Asheville... Biltmore Estate, the Smokey mountains, and the people... Great to hear from you.... I know where I would be all the time, if I lived there... A camp in the mountains with a camera, and a lot of glass :) :).. Take care

Hi Bernie :) :) I believe that is the origin... In the early years of the Bahamas the Greeks were the sponge kings, which was a huge industry here, and there are many Greek families... The butterfly may have come over in one of their bags years ago ;) ;). Well I am glad you mentioned the Greeks... It may very well be another mystery solved... Taking that one off my list ;)... Glad you liked the shot Bernie.... Take care :D
