Lens Artists Photo Challenge #255 -Telling a story

Posted in Butterflies, Nature, PhotographyTagged , , , ,

Patti has challenged us to focus on telling a story with our images.

My story is the life cycle of a Monarch butterfly. I haven’t been able to capture Monarch’s in my garden this year so these images are all from my archives.

Female Monarchs lay their eggs on Milkweed
Caterpillars emerge from the hatched eggs and eat the leaves of a milkweed plant. Milkweed is all they eat.
The Monarch Caterpillar crawls to a place to form a chrysalis.
The caterpillar changes into a butterfly while inside the chrysalis.
A new adult Monarch emerges from the chrysalis

Many thanks to Patti for the challenge Lens-Artists Challenge #255 – Telling a Story

    1. Thank you so much! I love seeing the butterflies in the garden and getting photos of them when I can. There have been a few this year but they take off before I can get a photo!

  8. Oh, how I loved this Beth. Beautiful captures, especially the caterpillars. It brought a smile to my face for another reason as well. My young grandchildren were playing with a camping hammock this weekend and were doing as your story tells. Becoming butterflies.
