White Wings


Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it.
~Soren Kierkegaard
I think this is a Cabbage White Butterfly (please correct me if I am wrong).

  1. The few butterflies I have come across this summer have not been willing to sit and be the subjects of my camera's lens. They are really making me mad! LOL
