Spring this year seems to be short on sunshine. To compensate for that, today's post is full of shiny things. And butterflies. Butterflies are always a good addition.

Macro Butterfly Wings
...look like miniature versions of wings. Fractals everywhere! (By Linden Gledhill, via Designboom)

Rainbows, unicorns and pixie dust coming next.
