Here's a couple shots of a butterfly I took this past summer at Inspiration Peak near Alexandria, MN. I just happened to get lucky that this butterfly landed on the clover right next to me and stayed long enough for me to take some good shots. As a side note, if you ever are in the Alexandria area, I highly recommend taking a couple hours and hiking up Inspiration Peak. Nice little place for nature and scenery.

These shots were taken on my Canon Rebel XT (350D) with a Sigma 70-300mm telephoto lens set at 300mm macro mode. Other technical information should be in the file properties. Click the links below for medium resolution images (I won't be hosting the original 8MP images on this site).
