Summer is flying away...





In Holland the summer flies away ,and Autumn is coming,.
This above photo is made in a butterfly-garden in Costa Rica.
Last December-January we were in COSTA RICA, an impressive (sunny, & great light!) country and a real inspiration to make this kind of photo's... A lot of American people were building and buying their second appartment/house overthere, I can really imagine.... Its a beautiful country.
In Nederland is de zomer weggevlogen en de Herfst doet zijn intrede, De foto boven is gemaakt in een vlindertuin in Costa Rica, daar waren we afgelopen jaar December/Januari. Het is een zeer indrukwekkend land, erg mooi (licht) om foto's te maken, Het viel ons op dat veel Amerikanen daar hun 2e appartment of huisje kopen. Dat kan ik mij erg goed voorstellen... want het is een prachtig land...

Het lukt mij maar zelden om een foto van vlinders te maken. Het zijn van die kleine zenuwenlijers die nooit even stil blijven zitten. Zodra ik in de buurt kom dan floep.... weg is hij. En om als een soort Prikkebeen achter ze aan te gaan dat lukt mij niet meer. Daar heb ik geen conditie genoeg meer voor :-)

A lovely and cheerful photo. Yes, autumn is coming fast here in the UK also. I do like this time of year though :)

Hope you are well.

Hi Joan, leuk nog een Nederlandse blogger gevonden in engelstalig blog-land.
Ik post op web-pix (internationaal team blog) en post foto's van m'n eigen werk.
Erg mooie foto's op je blog.

Nice butterfly shot.

It looks like part of it's wing is missing; probably and Old butterfly :)

The end of summer does not scare me - autumn is my favorite season!

JoAnn, I have a sheep on my blog???? I hope you don't mean the alligator! I think you've been drinking too much of your medicine ;-)))

You can accept your Animal Lover Award just by copying it from my blog - or I can email it to you.

I think we have similar butterflies here in CT, but I think they have fewer bulls' eyes. I especially like the leafe texture in the background. Well done!

Sidney said...

Maybe you should buy an apartment there too! ;-)
You can feel the strong sunlight here!

I really hate to see summer go. I have enjoyed this one so much.
Great capture of the butterfly.

Nice photo of the butterfly.

I've never been to Costa Rica. I have a friend at work who goes their every year to surf. Apparrently it's a great place for surfing too.

So much for me to catch up on and I've only been off line for a couple of days! I especially love this photograph....I enjoy photographing all insects. Hope you are keeping well :o)
