The Big Loop, Day 28: Spring Flowers & Butterflies (23 images)

Right after the rain is usually a perfect time for flower photography, especially if the light is still soft.

So the day started off with that. Then my sis and I visited the Butterfly House at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. What a great place! I loved being immersed in the tropical climate surrounded by exotic plants and the thousands of colorful butterflies. Enjoy!
