This is probably my most surprising photo of all. I was so surprised to see that I had captured two monarchs on one Mexican Sunflower.

Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in the living room. The kitten shown here, Snow, was watching animal planet with me.

Time

It was late morning. She had watched the big cat episodes before.

Lighting

Just normal daylight in a well lit room.

Equipment

Actually, this was my phone camera.

Inspiration

I am such a cat person! It is sometimes extremely difficult to get a good photograph of cats so when the opportunity came up, I photographed her adorable profile and unwavering attention on the show.

Editing

I just uploaded to my iPad to submit here and also used it as a screen saver on my phone.

In my camera bag

My favorite camera is a Nikon but also use color pix.

Feedback

Patience is the most important thing. Never give up no matter how many shots you have to delete!
