    Lightbulb Kind of photo thats just pure luck

    Fishing on a small mountain stream in Virginia and was taking some photos of a beautiful rhododendron in bloom. Something suddenly flew past my right ear grazing it and landed on the bloom just before I snapped a photo. If the link below works the results were pretty neat.

    BEAUTIFUL!!

    A couple of years ago, I was packing up the car to leave Keystone (on the AuSable (MI), when a butterfly decided to stop for a rest. My camera was sitting around my neck at the time so I quickly brought it up and took the shot. Like you pointed out...timing is everything.

    Grubb,

    Help yourself to the photo. Glad you liked it. Wasn't sure if I could get it from the PhotoBucket site to FAOL without messing up.

    Mato Kuwapi,

    Now that's what I call a beautiful photo. If that was mine it would be hanging somewhere, matted and framed. WOW!
