This is one of the blue spiderworts and yes, I heightened the contrast to bring out the rainbow wings on the fly. Just looking at them sends me to daydreaming.
Thanks for the comments and helpful hints. Most of my photos are from the woods and of nature. I hope you enjoy them.

@Marie-Hélène Ammor: Thank you. Your comments approach the poetic!
A very crisp detail on those wings I might add. They look like glass. I also love the color contrast between the blue and yellow.
