Hidden Gold

This is a picture of a butterfly that I found roaming around in my backyard. I like this butterfly because it is yellow and yellow is my favorite color.

Composition:

As with most nature photography, the photographer is not extremely concerned with composition as much as they are trying to take the photo. Similarly, I was just taking a bunch of clicks in hope to get a good photo. However, I did keep some things in mind when taking this photo. For example, I was trying to stand at an angle where the shadow of the camera does not fall on the butterfly to preserve its naturalness and beauty. Next, I was trying to be at a angle in which the whole butterfly could be captured instead of just its side or the top of its body.
