This is an official PhotoshopGurus.com contest sponsored by ButterflyStock.com

Post a photo that you took or a digital illustration that you made of any butterfly, insect, or flower.

Hi iDad, thanks again for your support :)

Yes, you can use the ButterflyStock images to make your entry. Anyone else who needs some butterflies can use the two free samples found here.

Of course you are also welcome to make something original and not use our butterflies.
 
Hey idad,

I like your "blowing butterflies" photo! Very colorful. Makes me smile :)

Thanks for starting the contest off.
