My Steemit challenge Entry #1

While visiting Key West Botanical Gardens, I came across this beautiful butterfly. The gardens have a couple of butterfly gardens and I was hoping to get a handful of photos.......I could not get close enough to even one.
As we were leaving, I made one last attempt to find just one that would let me get close enough for a photo.
Here it is.....hope you like.

Colors are amazing. Very nice photography. Upvoted.

Thank you @ impressions.

Beautiful Monarch butterfly!

Thank you @ dmcamera. I forgot to list Monarch in my post.

I see them in my garden all the time, and they their egg on the milkweed plants. :-)

Oh my goodness, that is so awesome!! I see you're in Florida.....what part? We have been in the Key West for the last 2 weeks, now we are just outside Palm Beach for a week.

North East Florida at Ponte Vedra Beach. I have never been to Key West!

Key West is very historical and a great place to visit, I wouldn't live there.

It sounds like it would be too busy a place for me. We love it here. The only time it gets crazy is for a week during the Players Championship golf tournament, but I volunteer on the course, so I enjoy the little bit of excitement.

You're correct, it is a very busy place. We're planning on visiting St. Augustine in the next couple of weeks. I see it's close to Ponte Vedra....looks very pretty.
