Description
"Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you." ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
I captured this shot last summer in a wheat field on the Gettysburg Battlefield. Many thistle come up in the wheat field, attracting butterflies and other insects.

Inspiring words to go with this gentle and delicate image. I love the simplicity of the white butterfly with so many soft shadows in his wings and the close up thistle catching the light. Beautiful photo. v/f

I think it's a cabbage butterfly but not possitive. Gorgeous capture in any event.
