Regarding the fish: I don't think they are edible---maybe if you were starving---and the boys think since they have a spiny face that they are poisonous. Mebbe so!! MB
Have you thought of starting a greetings cards business? These would put a smile on anyone's face, they are so gorgeous, so vibrant -and not moving for you lucky photographer!
Seems like for some reason this time, my comment didn't go through! I loved these beautiful pictures! Nice closeups of the butterflies! I've tried shooting butterflies but have never been so successful yet. Still trying! :-)
Man oh man! Quit showing off Jacob. These are absolutely amazing. Crisp and color perfect. My hat's off to you on these.

ReplyDeleteOne word: w-o-w
ReplyDelete@ Small City Scene - That's kind of what I figured. Smart kids! I believe the puffer fish I alluded to are also poisonous.
