Butterfly Photo Art

in #nature6 years ago (edited)

The Philadelphia Flower Show is the largest indoor plants exhibition in the world. Since 1828, it is the oldest plant show in the United States, and an annual end of winter tradition in my hometown of Philly.

I have the pleasure of helping set up and tear down the butterfly exhibit. SkyRiver Butterflies is the largest traveling butterfly exhibit in the country. They have been a part of the Flower Show for the past 7 years. The butterflies are from all over the world. A lot of work is put into keeping them quarantined in case of parasites. I do intense physical labor once a year to help my friends from California put together the annual exhibit. I get all access to the event, and I was the first to record the first butterflies waking up.

All photos taken and edited my me. I'm in the process of putting together a video of the butterflies. I should have it up in the next day or 2.

This is truly wonderful... I visited the butterfly emporium in Niagara Falls, Canada many many years ago and it was such a delight, I can only imagine the thrill you received in helping set up and seeing the butterflies awaken!

Good luck with your new shop, happy to have you on board, and looking forward to seeing your wares!

These are spectacular! The first one is like looking at a piece of art - stained glass art to be exact.

What a wonderful job that would be! I can hardly wait to see the video!
