Post 21: Theme 341 Under Water

Since I am unlikely to fulfill this theme with an actual under water shot, I think an aquarium shot will have to suffice. I love the colors on this sea anemone!

Post 20: Theme 184 Motion Blur

Usually I try to avoid motion blur like the plague, but with this shot it helps to convey the graceful, ever-present movement of the butterfly's wings. (He also has creepy eyes. Check out the larger image.)

Post 19: Theme 345 Unique Camera Angle

This butterfly appears to be lording over the camera...

Post 18: Theme 317 The Letter P

Today the letter P stands for "Pink Pattern." This very stylish butterfly wears a trendy combo of black and pink.

Post 17: Theme 365 Yellow

This beauty has several brilliant colors, but yellow is definitely the star of the show.

Post 16: Theme 53 Coiled

Check out the proboscis on this guy!

Post 15: Theme 208 Orange

Butterflies are such amazing examples of vibrant color in nature that I couldn't help but use them to fill several of the 365 Challenge Themes.

Post 14: Theme 62 Creepy

Every time I look at this photo it creeps me out! This is from a cockroach exhibit at the Butterfly Pavilion in Denver.

Post 13: Theme 24 Bloom

I think this shot captures a bit of the action behind the theme, so I guess I was going for "blooming" more so than "bloom."
