Gumbo's Pic of the Day, July 8, 2015: Butterfly, Vancouver Island

This is a close-up I took of a butterfly while visiting Vancouver island . The sun was out early and I suppose it was warming itself in the early morning heat. I think what impressed me was the delicacy and design of the insect, which let me get very close to take this photograph.
