I've posted up some of the luminaries and things that I've been doing. A friend asked if I could do butterflies. Said we'll give it a shot and see how bad I can mess it up. Here is a herd (gaggle? flock? mess?) of butterfly experiments.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice, Russ. Honestly, how can you mess up a butterfly?
Good to see you are not feeling too old to try new things!

Thanks, Jean, hope you're well. Feeling a little old today and taking it easy. Building a retaining wall. Told the wife I'm getting too old to wrestle 16 foot railroad ties. Wrestling butterflies is easier.

Awesome butterflies. See, I knew you could do it. You are too old to be wrestling 16 ft railroad ties   |

Thanks again all. No real skills here, just muddle along and sometimes something turns out not too bad.

Those are terrific. Love to see new ideas pop up and you knocked it out of the park. Great job!

I think they're great, Russ! Using the moss agate on that last one that let's the light come through is wonderful. Are you using copper foil on them?
