# 2 Hidden From View

I have chosen to photograph one of my Monarch

Butterfly Chrysalis. I have been raising them for about 4 months

now. If you look closely you can see the wings inside the Chrysalis. I

hope you enjoy

  2. Great shot. It must be fun watching them slowly change and then have the reward of the final moment when a butterfly emerges!

    Thank you and yes it is really something to watch the different stages and then finally have the butterfly emerge and to release it.

    Very nice picture. Love the colors and the subject is something we don’t always see or appreciate.

    Wow – I’ve never seen that before and would probably never spot it. Thanks for sharing and teaching! The blue is very pretty.

    I just replaced my front garden with plants that attract butterflies and it is full of life. There might even be a few preparing to do this.

    LOVE this! – you got the little dots of gold at the bottom and the gold “zip” at the top perfectly! and perfectly hidden! …for about 5 years – each August we’d “raise” Monarchs, when it gets really black you’ll know they are about to pop – amazing that such a large butterfly can be so folded up in there – and so helpless for at least a couple of hours before it can fly, another great photo op! Its amazing.
