Thanks to Pearl Jam's "Evenflow" for the title of this post.
This afternoon, I was able to capture some beautiful shots of butterflies with my Canon 80D camera, using a 75 - 300 mm lens.
I continue to be fascinated by this vibrantly colored insect. When I see this creature, a famous quote often comes to mind. That quote goes as follows:
"I dreamed I was a butterfly, flitting around in the sky; then I awoke. Now I wonder: Am I a man who dreamt of being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?"
~ Zhuangzi, a 4th century BC Chinese philosopher
Here are the shots of those butterflies that I was able to capture:
Truly a fascinating creature. If you haven't been out in nature in a while, do so. It gives you a sense of calmness and serenity. A wonderfully peaceful place.
