Description This is the first time that I've actually photographed a butterfly.
You don't see many butterflies in Al Jafliya, so it was rather nice to come across one today.

'Tittli' means Butterfly in Hindi/Urdu.

Al Jafliya - Dubai, U.A.E.

You sneaky so and so... first you remove it from featured and then you rearrange the gallery so that a "true watcher" gets suspicious and switches to "Browse".
Caught you orange handed!
That is truly artistic... not like many of the gazillion other pretty shots found around here.
Street is a good training ground, ay?

Huh?!
Holy pakora, Batman! I've been on dA all these years and I've never noticed the "Browse" thingy!
Ahem... ahem... uh - what I meant to say was, yeah! That was my intention from the very beginning...

Thank you my friend!

Thanks, JosΓ©
The YARD admins have always supported my work,
and I'm extremely grateful to them for the kindness they've shown me.

But I'm afraid I cannot submit this to the YARD. What if this gets accepted???

Street Photography is all about capturing un-posed, candid moments in time,
and she is clearly posing. On top of that, she's nude too.
Thanks, buddy!

Nude AND hanging tightly onto that very long stick there.Β  You did remember to put a mature filter on this, right?

And on top of that, it has a rather vulgar sounding name: Tit-tli?

Wha....? How can that be??
You're Earth Hart, man, not British & Northern European Hart!

Anyways, just spoke to my good pal, Google, who tells me that this is a
Plain Tiger or African Monarch (Danaus chrysippus), a common butterfly.

Earth-Hart In reply to MARX77 [2013-05-19 20:50:41 +0000 UTC]

I thought it might be a Heliconid Butterfly, but they are found in the New World, and the Monarch Butterfly Danaus plexippus is one of them so I can see why it's called the African Monarch

MARX77 In reply to Earth-Hart [2013-05-19 20:56:35 +0000 UTC]

The Heliconid? Yeah I can see why you'd think that.
You know, it looks a lot like a Tawny Coaster (Acraea terpsicore) as well.
Maybe it is a Tawny Coaster!

Man, this butterfly stuff is complicated!

It is complicated, that's why I stick to my own area. There are so many globally you'll never know them all

In butterfly society this would be considered a fine Street photograph of a ne'er–do–well kid just hanging around doing nothing all day.
Umm...its not really a butterfly, K-man...its one of Obama's new drones
Nice photo...gentle pastoral-like colors gives it a wonderful warmth
