#butterfly mark

The gothic does not break butterflies upon a wheel, but dangles them on a string, toys with them, plays at the exercise of power.

@cyliph submitted: This beautiful dry season question mark (Polygonia interrogationis) has got to be one of my favorite finds this year, look at that fringe! I also have pictures of its ventral side and it’s a beautiful red, but I don’t believe I can attach more than one photo.

That’s a beauty! Feel free to reblog with another pic and @ me so I can see it :)

In the shrinking sunlight of early October, life in Central Appalachia's forests and fields shows no signs of slowing down. A proliferation of asters and goldenrods fuels an insect feeding frenzy, at the same time ensuring that a late season eruption of seeds before the first frost will bring new life in the spring. From top: dog tooth lichen (Peltigera canina), also known as felt lichen, whose lobes are tipped by red apothecia ; large cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon), which dot wet mountain meadows and bogs; crooked-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum prenanthoides); brown-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia triloba), which blooms later than black-eyed Susan and has three-lobed basal leaves; a bumblebee (Bombus) taking nectar from purple-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum puniceum), also known as swamp aster; an American hoverfly (Eupeodes americanus) similarly drinking from purple-stemmed aster; blue wood aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium); question mark butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis); and wrinkleleaf goldenrod (Solidago rugosa), also known as rough-leaf goldenrod.

I think the difference between the Mark and Amber breakup being dragged out compared to something like Tomstar is that the show isn't dancing around it to the same degree, plus it's far more nuanced. Whereas Star was basically just using Tom to get over Marco and Star herself just being an awful girlfriend with Tom putting in all the effort, that isn't what's happening with Mark and Amber.

The two have a genuine relationship, and unlike Tomstar, we get to see the two realize that their relationship is on the rocks with them talking about it but neither knowing how to fix it. Even though this relationship is clearly doomed to fail like many others I've seen, it's the only one I can think of in recent years that actually explores the subject matter of "two people who want to be together but realize that they can't due to their different lives."

 Today I am featuring the beautiful Aline Souza and her gorgeous freckles. I was initially drawn to the photos of her because of the creative makeup application. I like how the makeup is simply chic with an artistic flair. As I continued to stare at her photos I was captivated by her smattering of freckles across her nose and cheeks. I just adore when people are confident enough to showcase their full spectrum of beauty.  When I  was growing up people would cover up freckles, moles, and birth marks with heavy concealer and foundation because they were told they were imperfections or deformities.  I am so glad that the world has gotten a clue and has learned that they are nothing to hide or be ashamed of. It especially hit home for me because as you all know I have an adorable birthmark smack dab in the middle of my right cheek on my face. I have always  been asked why I  never cover it up with makeup, and I always say it is what makes me uniquely special, and why would I want to hide that. It is a sign that I am marked for greatness!

@sonofsimon submitted: Look at this beautiful Question Mark. I had never seen one of these before. It was pretty exciting.

What a beauty! My aunt in Wisconsin has sent me several question marks this week, so they must be out in force in the midwest.
