Personal Narrative: Butterflies

When I look at this picture, I see a tree trunk filled with butterflies only some of the Monarchs are colored. The fact that only the natural light highlights some of the butterflies is so alluring. Staring at the photo makes me ponder how many astonishing things our planet has to offer. Not only that but I think about all the marvelous things I see every day but look over because I am too focused on my cellphone or my fast paced life. The compelling hues of blue that pop through the trees gives the photo power because it helps pull focus on the butterflies in the center. The photo is of butterflies and it was so compelling when I first viewed it that I got butterflies in my stomach. I was in awe of the raw power and beauty in the photo. Emotions
like sadness, worry, and happiness crossed my mind. Happiness because it is so amazing that we have the opportunity to witness beautiful things like that. Sadness and worry because the way our world is changing how long until these miracles of nature cannot happen anymore or we will not be able to admire them.
