  1. A butterfly (or moth) in a Christmas tree, how unusual and such a contrast of ideas! I love it! A beautiful sight!

    Enjoy the party and all others in this festive time!

  2. Quite beautiful. Butterflies, like their name, are beautiful it seems no matter what the language.

  3. Keeping the lepidoptera in Christmas, and in a most lovely way. ‘-}

  4. when i once again, one day, have a tree .. .. .. … that IS what i will put on mine!

  6. Makes for a great shot!

  7. like the butterflies, great idea – will get some in future for the tree… and love the way they were thrown on the tree… kinda organic without any particular pattern… and the star dust… "methinks" Hamlet? oh, comedies are sweeter than tragedies…:)

  8. I’m not big on xmas decorations, but I love this!
