Lovely shots from all of you. I'm impressed that Julio is managing to snag such shots with his D200 - I guess that means they are very recent.

You must live in some sub-tropical climate - it's freezing nobby's nuts off here .

Great interplay between foreground and background. Creative positioning of the subject separates
this one from the many saccharine variants widely seen.

Welcome to South Florida!

Today's temperature... 78 degrees (F), bright blue skies, sunny and warm.



Who wants to come down for a trip to the famous "Butterfly World" in Coconut Creek, Florida (15 miles North of Fort Lauderdale)?* *It's an enclosed butterfly aviary with thousands of specimens flying around and landing in a garden environment setting.

Then there are the hummingbird aviaries.....* posing interesting challenges to any photographer.

No tripods or monopods allowed.* All photography must be handheld.
