Texture Twist: Autumn's Admiral and Colors of Autumn Giveaway Winners Announced




First of all let me say a BIG --- THANK YOU --- to everyone who joined me Kristy, Life-n-Reflection and Lisa, Simply Living for the Colors of Autumn Photography Challenge! We are so excited to announce the winners of the Challenge and Giveaway...

The Colors of Autumn Photography Awards go to

1st Place Carol, Pur et Simple
2nd Place Julia, On the Mammilade
3rd Place Patrica, Peabea's Scribbles 





Isn't he a beauty?! I found this Red Admiral Butterfly quite striking at a local butterfly sanctuary. He summers here in the Midwest through October, then he returns to sunny Texas. And oh my, I can tell you from my experience living in Texas winters are much easier there than the Midwest. I'll be wishing I could fly that way too when Autumn turns cold. Check out this article from Clickin Moms for tips on including the foreground in your photograph.
