David, both are beautiful, as always, and I've been switching between the two and I'm going to say the first one if my favorite. But.... If you ask me tomorrow I'll probably say I like the second one the best.

Hey Donald, to me it looks like Mangrove trees from the water view. I like the treatment!

Lee, Nice shot and what a great find!
Karen,
After your teaser hint earlier this week, I have been looking forward to this. Both are outstanding -- I have not seen anything quite like your treatment of the backgrounds. My wife prefers the contrasting background colors of your #1, and she says "Good for her". Should we look forward to more? Thanks for posting these treats.

Thanks a lot David! I started with separating the butterfly from the original background then creating a blank canvas with different colors of orange, green, blue, yellows and reds with various degrees of opacity using different brushes. Then I went into PS's art gallery and did a water paper treatment just on the background. Finally to get the blue I went into filter then render then different clouds and just adjusted opacity to get the color I wanted. Just as simple as that.

Sort of reminds me of this Bushtit I got with my FZ18, back in '07:
Your sparrow looks very pleasant, and obliging.
Bushtits always look angry. I was in a group of fennel and the flock was going "Chirp-chirp", talking among themselves and my camera was going "chirp-chirp" as it focused. I think they were talking to the camera, too.

Thank you, Erik!
It is reassuring to know that others appreciate the simple beauty of that image!
I thought for a while about that slight angle and decided that it was an important part of the composition.... just enough to be intriguing!

The best part of growing old is having the opportunity to do so.
