My Opinion:
A stunning collection of butterflies, moths and larvae in photography. There were so many different butterflies, each unique in their own way.
I really enjoyed looking through the photos, though I felt the binding did take away from some of the larger photos, still a very good visual experience.
I think a lot of butterfly fans should check it out, mainly due to its mass amount of species in it. Like I said, there were many I had never heard of before, and I'm sure a seasoned butterfly watcher would see some newbies too!


4.5/5


Recommend? Yes.

The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
