PATIENCE REWARD

Jessi's photograph in the Butterfly Pavilion at the Natural History Museum LA
I am not fond of my first post for today and often I would simply delete it.  However then I might hear that a fellow blogger was getting ready to comment and had come back looking for it.  So......I will leave it, but in the meantime I will deposit this much more beautiful post to ponder.  My goddaughter Jessi took this picture in the Butterfly Pavilion and I could not believe the patience she had.  I was pointing willy-nilly clicking away and getting some very lame photos while she was doing just as her mother would have done, waiting for perfection.

    This is perfection indeed. What a gorgeous butterfly. Have you noticed blogger not updating today? I see by your sidebar that it's yesterday's post. Peculiar.

    Kudos to her. I have yet to catch one of these frigidity creatures on film.

    That is beautiful - thank you, and her. I am another willy-nilly clicker. And should learn from magic like this.

    If only I had one ounce of patience.

    Sonny
    If only butterflies could live a little bit longer. I think they said their life span is 2 weeks.

    Kay
    I usually don't have trouble with blogger, but it looks like it is my turn now.

    Chatty Crone
    Even Jessi was proud of getting that great shot.

    Riot Kitty
    My grandson has gotten some great shots of Portland. What a beautiful area!

    It is a very difficult thing to catch a photo of a butterfly, even when you are shut inside a butterfly pavilion.

    Oh my, I would never call you a willy-nilly clicker. You take gorgeous photos.

    I could never have held the pose she had to hold in order to take the picture. They would have had ot call an ambulance to carry me off if I stayed in one place as long as Jessi did to get the picture.

    Lee
    Thank you for you comments on both these posts.

    Brighid
    Thanks! I am proud of her picture and proud of her.

    I only Jessi knew what a compliment it is go get a “wow” from you.

    The beauty of the picture kind of takes away from the sadness about RW.

    Tabor
    You seem to wait for it very well.
