Some lovely landscapes and a butterfly.

in #hive-1277882 years ago

South Africa is a big open and wide country with much beauty.

As I said there is a wide variety of nature scenes and the sky compliments the sights. So we took a trip to see what we could find on camera in order to show you the beauty.
Any direction, East, West, South, North, always delivers much to look at, and it is so distressing to see cars racing up and down, and not stopping to appreciate the sights.
Come and have a look.

I will use this butterfly drinking water as an opening to the next section.

Finally, the butterfly looks like a Painted Lady, and it is the first time for me to get a butterfly drinking water.

Maybe, the butterfly wasn't drinking water, and as it is a Painted Lady, she might just have been checking her make-up using the water as a mirror.
Any case, I hope that you have enjoyed the sights, and for us it is always a pleasure to travel slowly so that I can stop when I see something that my camera likes.
We are blessed with nature in abundance and it is my pleasure to share it with you.

And That's All Friends.

Thank you!

Hello @papilloncharity, those are simply breath-taking landscapes. It is very sweet to think that maybe the butterfly is looking at itself in the water 😍.

Thank you my friend 😊

Hahaha, I thought a bit of humor would not be out of place 🤣 !LOLZ

Magistic and vibrant nature! You and @daveks have the awesomest sky/sunset shots.

For whatever reason, @ecency won’t let me post a pick of the sky I shot yesterday to add to the conversation!

Love seeing the sky, water ant wildlife in your posts. Also good knowing upvotes are going to a good place far away from me.

No need for an apology!

I searched but couldn't find the button to upload a picture in the reply screen. Could be as much user error as anything else.

Thank you Sir Zeke and glad to hear that @daveks also post similar shots.

No idea, as @ecency works okay for me.

I love the same and thank you for the compliment.

I !LUV these photos of the water 😍

Maybe, the butterfly wasn't drinking water, and as it is a Painted Lady, she might just have been checking her make-up using the water as a mirror.

...and your sense of humour 😂 !LOL

Thank you Sweet Caroline and I am one of those madcaps that can laugh at myself, so I always try to get a laugh as laughter is good medicine for the soul 🤣 !LOL

I hope Elon Mush never gets invloved in a scandal
