BELINDA GROVER PHOTOGRAPHY

STOPS ALONG THE WAY

SKIPPER 1

21 Comments

SkipperIt’s a season of firsts. The other day I featured my first dragonfly photograph, today it’s a skipper. As I walked next to a field, I saw one, then several more of these butterflies. You rarely see a solitary skipper so you usually have several opportunities to take a photograph, always nice.

    Beautiful! I know how hard it is to wait to finally see something in your lens that you’ve been waiting for. But when it appears (bees, butterflies, etc), it is marvelous! It exhilarates me for days. 🙂

    Great shot! Skippers are so distinctive in how they hold their wings.
