I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.

This is a Question Mark butterfly. See the white markings that look like a question mark turned sideways? The dorsal side of the wings look nothing like the underside, and are beautiful! Great shot of the camo on this guy!
+Darion Jackman Thanks for the ID. I will updated the description.I have seen them several time before about this time of the year. I was always intrigued by the leaf like camo.
