For some reason this butterfly was attracted to my corduroy pants. Since it was on a back pocket it would've been very difficult for me to take the picture. My wife obliged.

I know this wasn't intended to be monochromatic - but it's just beautiful that it turned out that way.

perfect complimentary color for background. no problem with your wife pushing the button.
had to chuckle though imagining a passerby not seeing the butterfly but seeing your wife taking a closeup of your posterior and telling you... 'oh... its just beautiful!'
cheers.
