From the Journal

This picture celebrates the family of Australian yellow butterflies, in their fluttering “ golden-ness ”.

I imagine a place where they are gathered, en masse....! The dull, rusty texture of the circle motif (I am always picking up such things as I walk here and there) provides a contrast to the fine golden sheen of wings. And I can hear the quirky way that little Hannah says, “Yellow”, with a high inflection of joy on the first syllable!
