Golden Leaves

Stepping away from my computer and work, I decided to clear my head on a short walk through the neighborhood. Impossible to ignore, these radiating leaves caught my eye from the house across the street. Although Winter is peaking its head into most places, Fall is still the season here in Alabama.

Another Garden Beauty...

This beautiful butterfly seems to have taken home in our backyard, as well as in the other surrounding flower bushes in the neighborhood. I have to say, it has been quite nice having its beauty fluttering around my garden. I have tried several times to get close enough to catch a shot, but unfortunately have had no luck.

However, today, while trying to exhaust my energetic puppy, I was finally able to play a little game of "Stalk the Poor Butterfly" and get a few amazing shots. Here are a couple of my favorites. The color in the wings is just too amazing for words. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!
