Butterfly

I had the opportunity to use my new macro lens (AF-S Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8G ED) when I discovered this butterfly trapped in our rain gutter.

In the images that I took, she is resting on Michele's arm drying her wings.

Due to the break in the weather, there was plenty of ambient sunlight.  As a lucky bonus, there was an additional source as sunlight was reflected off of a mirrored door stored in the garage.  The light enabled nice exposures.

The butterfly flew away shortly after the shoot and alighted in a nearby tree.

Perfect!

I would love for some feedback on the three images in my gallery. Which is your favorite and why?
