Some of the most dramatic “Changes” take place in nature. Here’s one.
From the striped, almost clumsy appearance of the caterpillar, to the fluttering gossamer wings of the Monarch butterfly.

I don’t know .. the clumsy caterpillar looks dashing to me :D. This is a fabulous take on the theme, and the photos that make me wish for more 🙂
Thanks Paula. You would be amazed at how a caterpillar that is as large as these are can be so hard to see, but they are so cool once you find them. You’ll have to wait for mor because I still haven’t capture a photograph of a Monarch butterfly that I’m truly happy with.
Oh yes, I know .. butterflies are so flickering… I would like another opportunity with a butterfly shot too ….
We’ll have to make it our mission this summer! 😀
Yes! Absolutely 🙂 I booked a hotel for 7 days for July at about 1,000 m altitude somewhere in the green between two major Italian lakes.. .there should be butterflies there I guess.
The current header – blindingly white with you in your red jumpsuit is GREAT 😀 😀 😀
I call my winter hiking attire “The body is over here” red 😛
😆 hope it will never come to that 😆
You and me both!
Very nicely done Jeff. Love the color and clarity of the caterpillar

beautiful
What stunning shots! I love your take on the “change” challenge. Keep ’em coming.
Thank you very much Jessica. And rest assured, you haven’t heard the last of me 🙂
Absolutely stunning Jeff.
Thanks Edith!
I really like the caterpillar image.
They are pretty cool aren’t they. I’m hoping to find one in it’s cocoon this summer and my daughter and I can see it open.
That would be really neat if you were able to do that.
Beautiful, and perfect for the theme.
Thank you Naomi 🙂
Nice one
Thanks!
They are so beautiful, even the dancing caterpillar.
Thank you Valentina. They are great subjects that I love to photograph, when I can find them 🙂
Lovely selection of photos for the challenge!!
Thank you, and thanks for paying a visit to my little corner of Blog-ville 🙂
whow! gorgeous! how lucky to be at the right place at the right moment for both moments of this butterfly’s life! the colors are resplendissant!
Lucky indeed! I hope to get lucky again this summer and find even more of them.
Superb detail on the caterpillar Jeff. Nice one!
Thanks Jim.
Wow! The butterfly photo is beyond words, what a great image.
Thanks Stephanie. Of all of the perfectly sharp photos of the butterfly I got that day, this blurry one is my favorite.
so awesome Jeff!! Excellent post for the challenge 🙂
Thank you very much Pam. I thought the waterfall image might be playing it a little loose with the interpretation, but I’ve played it a lot looser in the past 😀
Loose is always better! Lol! Have a great week!
