    Your flowers are just beautiful, but I really enjoyed the butterflies, moths and bees especially.

    Hi. Just checking out what's new.

    These are some really good shots. Are all these flowers and butterflies from your home? Or is this a collage from many locations? If this is your house, then you're a pretty lucky guy.

    @Rosey - All these butterflies are native to pakistan specially plains. I got only only camera that is Canon powershot A570IS.

    @Chris - Only 1st, 3rd and 4th are from Mums flower exhibition, other are from my home (either terrace of soil bed). It takes much effort to attract bees and butterflies to your garden in an urban location such as mine.
