Nature’s Pure Delight
226. Nature’s Pure Delight

Description:
Butterfly is one of the most beautiful of all insects. People have always been charmed by the delicate, gorgeously coloured wings of butterflies and their beauty inspires many poets, artists and photographers.
Nepal has 11 out of the 15 (about 643 species) families of butterflies in the world. I was able to capture this picture of Monarch Butterfly after chasing it more than 15 minutes on the bank of Trishuli River near Krishna bhir.

Awesome shot! lovely bokeh!! That must be a Male Monarch, right?.
For me, their metamorphosis amazes and inspires me the most rather than their beauty. Mystery of the majestic nature.

painted colors
flying flowers
flapping wings
with smooth swings
like leaves swaying
in cool breeze
spots of white
orange shines
shades of yellow
that look so fine
without a sound
they pass by
pretty little butterflies..
nature’s an artist
can’t deny!
Great Capture!! Thumbs up!!

Now, how come this picture represent ‘LIFE’ in Nepal? I think this section should contain pictures that represent or exhibit life of the people in Nepal. May be its only me who is wrong here.

If it is just “life in Nepal” i.e. all living organisms’ life in Nepal , then this picture can be here, otherwise not.

Thank you all for your nice compliments. DreamSky! Inspiration is all that counts for a creative person like you, whether it’s metamorphosis or beauty. Keep getting inspire and let others get inspire.
Dear Me, Myself and I!
Don’t take this word ‘LIFE’ literally. Life here in EU’s ‘Life in Nepal’ photography series is about Nepal, Nepali and Nature. Seem like you are unaware of ‘Life in Nepal’ photography series’ Rules and Guidelines otherwise, you won’t be asking this question. And please don’t worry about who’s wrong or who’s right. Let’s make both ‘win win’ situation instead. Be positive in ‘LIFE’.
I suggest EU Admin to publish this ‘Rule and Guidelines’ of LIN’s photography series here in
EU as well. Access to Flickr Pool to read those information is limited to yahoo users only. So, why not put those information here in EU as well.
Bishwa! I am glad, picture above inspired you too and it’s a nice ‘Poem’. Thank you for your poetic comment.
