'wetting a line' at sunrise

another beautiful 67* early morning at Sunrise.. I decided to 'wet a line' in the surf because it was high tide... plenty of Ladyfish jumping out beyond the breakers--actually about 3 waves out just far enuff to be out of my casting reach... had two hookups.. plenty of jumping  but both spit the hook and never landed.. that's okay though.. better than it has been fishing the surf around here with the water  being so warm..still 84* water temps..  later on back at the house while washing my truck in the driveway saw this Red-Spotted Purple Butterfly do some 'touch and go's  on the concrete.. he wouldn't go near a flower.. grabbed my camera and snapped a couple of quik-pics..

added a lil' artistry touch
