While driving up the winding driveway to the barn around 8:30 a.m., I was greeted by two beautiful swallowtail butterflies feeding on thistle weed. I thought, 'What a great photo opportunity!' So I reached into my purse, pulled out my I-phone, stopped the truck (I think I stopped the truck), then jogged over to the thistle weed site where the butterflies were oblivious to the fact I was even there.
I raised the camera, hit the camera button, and like magic, this is what I was able to capture. By the way, I'm having a blast with my new I-phone, compliments of my lovely daughter!
Let's see what others have created for the letter N on alphabet Thursday.

Well done, these photographs are as good as any expensive camera. iPhones are wonderful, aren't they? The only problem I have with mine is using the actual phone!!!

The pizza oven is a project made by students and a potter. We don't use it a lot.
