    Hi Linda,

    Lovely shot, this particular butterfly looks so plain in comparison to many other species, yet is almost ethereal in its beauty.

    The weather here in the UK certainly hasn't been conducive to butterflies yet, so cold, wet and windy! I don't think I have seen any at all this year in the garden!

    Thanks for making it seem like Summer, at least in your small corner of the world.

    Yvonne

    Whenever I see a butterfly with this coloration I have to ask myself..is this a moth or a butterfly. Then I go to my book and look it up. We had lots flying around a few days ago, but now they appear to have flown off somewhere else. I surely hope they return. genie

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
