Description I had been trying all season to get a shot of a monarch with it's wings open. Well finally after I had all but given up, I stumbled across this one. Well it seemed like it wanted me to photograph it. It was like it was posing for me.

Cropped and colors fixed. Original is here... [link]

Other works by me:

That's usually how it works, when you've pretty much given up - boom! I like how you angled the shot instead of right on (might have been an accident but it works) and I like how the ground matches the monarch but there's still the contrasting green to break up the brown
