Description
I was photographing a field of sunflowers, and noticed this beautiful monarch butterfly, stopping along the way to gather nectar in the morning sun. I was thrilled to capture this image of such a beautiful Monarch. What a peaceful, almost magical place to rest, before continuing on the journey. Is there a better combination than a Monarch butterfly and a sunflower? I don't think so! Photographed in central Ohio, USA. Digital textures were added to achieve the zoom burst appearance.
