“Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly”
— Barbara Haines Howett

The butterfly

June 19, 2016 in fine art photography, nature photography
20160619-DSC_9323-Edit.jpg

I saw him on the stairs of the restaurant. Beautiful. Almost still. Between life and death. Took a few pictures.  Thirty minutes later, on our way out, he was still there. I picked him up and took him home. when I touch him, the wings flutter for a few seconds, as if he wants to fly. His last movements. Still here, still beautiful. not for long. When life meets death.

Life meets death

Life meets death
