Perfectly Imperfect!

Butterfly

Subject : A Beautiful Butterfly with a Broken wing

Story behind the shot : This shot wasn't planned. I had my camera with me and saw this butterfly flying around . It rested for a while on a small plant and without any thought I took a shot of this without any ideas nor any plans of how to frame the subject.

What made me capture the image : Imperfection hasn't made this butterfly stop being a butterfly. I felt that it never minded its imperfection and it went on doing its work .. being a butterfly ..

“We are all wonderful, beautiful wrecks. That's what connects us--that we're all broken, all beautifully imperfect.” 
― Emilio Estevez

Subject : Butterfly

Story behind the shot : I got a chance to capture this lovely butterfly when I was walking back home from the grocery store. This little thing was hopping from one plant to another and I stopped walking to observe it. I switched on my camera and waited for the right moment to capture it . At one point of time [may be after 3-5 minutes] it stood still on this dry roadside plant and SNAP! I got the photo.

What made me capture the image : The colorful wings of the butterfly gracefully contrasted with the gray background . The way the plant had its edges curled looked pretty and the butterfly itself looked bright and happy.
