Blue on Blue


The air is like a butterfly with frail blue wings...

-- Joyce Kilmer

This was what I was going to post yesterday but at the last moment I changed it for the underwater one - I wanted something really blue!!

This photo was taken by Guy on The Kokoda Track.

    Blues are beautiful to see - under or above water. This is lovely, Jules.

    Its nice to think of butterflies now on the kokoda trail, considering the carnage that this piece of the world saw.
    Beautiful picture.

    Jules, both are good "blues." But the markings on this butterfly are amazing. I have never seen a butterfly like that.

    That's wonderful, Jules.

    In reply to your question, The ABC Wednesday theme is run by Denise Nesbitt.

    She listed on my links as `Mrs Nesbitt' so just click on that link and let her know.

    She is a lovely person, very welcoming. She'll add you to the ABC roll and then you're up and away.

    Let me know if you run into any hiccups.

    Keep smiling

    David
